Fort Walla Walla Natural Area Birds

This morning 8/28 my mom and I walked around the natural area and found lots of birds. The Yellow-breasted Chats are still singing, Gray Catbirds, Black-headed Grosbeaks and Western Tanagers are feasting on the chokecherries, Western Wood-Pewees are calling their plaintive call.
Many migrants are stopping there - Yellow, Townsend's, MacGillivray's, Wilson's and Nashville Warblers were all found along with good numbers of Warbling Vireo's. The Bewick's Wrens are again very vocal as are the Swainson's Hawk family. Enjoy these summer visitors before they all head south!MerryLynn
