Subject: [IBLE] Moscow WHITE-THROATED SPARROW
This evening I was pleased to find a late WHITE-THROATED SPARROW (lousy pic in eBird: [ https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S56555130 | https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S56555130 ] ) in the UI Arboretum and Botanical Gardens in Moscow. It was in the Spirea hedge due west of the 3 big Prospector Elms in the upper end of the Arb. This appears to be only the third May record in eBird for north Idaho. I detected no other migrants, but did pick up my FOY mosquito bite. 1-2 Towsend’s Warblers, a Wilson’s Warbler, Western Tanager, and newly-arrived Chipping Sparrow rounded out the migrants in my Moscow yard this morning. At least one of my yard-breeding Western (Cordilleranish) Flycatchers arrived on the early side, May 18.
Good Birding,
