This afternoon, I thought I might try my luck with the Yellow-breasted Chat at Bender Park. I through on my camo gear, loaded up with bug spray and headed out. I walked back, all the way to the bluff and could hear him singing. I found him not too much long afterward. He was moving about singing, but keeping to a small area. It sure is a beautiful bird! This might be the same bird I found on 5/5, which I think I had two that day, one calling and one eating in the trees. There’s a good chance they are breeding here. I also found a Yellow Warbler nest with three eggs, one of them almost double the size of the other two, surely being a cowbird egg. Oh well, that’s nature I guess. There were also lots of sparrows, Clay-colored, Field, Savannah and Song.
