Good morning IBLE!

Recent first-of-season birds in our eBird patch (Boise River Greenbelt)
include:

Ducks – Cinnamon and Green-winged Teal, Ruddy Duck

Raptors – Merlin, Sharp-shined and Coopers Hawk, whereas Osprey and
Swainson’s have all but evaporated

Greater Yellow-legs, Red-naped Sapsucker, Cassin’s Vireo

Swallows – thought to have departed our patch, yesterday we encountered a
foraging frenzy of hundreds: Barn, Tree, and Violet-green

Ruby-crowned Kinglet and Pine Siskin

Warblers – Yellow hasn’t been here for a while; in their place have been
Orange-crowned, Yellow-rump, and Wilson’s

Evening Grosbeak – two in our neighbor’s tree yesterday, nice and vocal!
=)

Happy Autumn!!!
