Knee, Pt. Two

Here we go again.  395 south.  Headed to Butterbredt.  Brutal day, but not without its rewards:

Indigo Bunting, Furnace Creek Ranch.

Ovenbird, Stovepipe, Death Valley.

Wavy Day

Yesterday the migrant wave continued, with quite a few more birds than Sunday.  A few new warblers showed up, which are showcased below.  Also a South-Polar Skua, Northern Saw-whet Owl, American Redstart, Bobolink, and Yellow-headed Blackbird were notable.  Today looks like NW winds and fog.  Should be a nice relaxing day.

Ovenbird, getting a little time in at the Lighthouse.

My first ever Bay-breasted Warbler. This was a probable female, because it had yellowish tipped coverts, green rump, and weak black centers to the mantle feathers.
