Nope. Just a leucistic robin
You'd better believe I hit the brakes though when this bird flashed into my vision at 50mph. I had no idea what it was. Ironically it's about a mile north of the partially leucistic tree swallow last fall at 3 Oaks.
Another black and orange bird was just about the most common warbler today, Blackburnian
Unfortunately most were heard-only treetop birds, this one at least came down to the mid-story. Warblers have actually been really good lately, but they've almost universally been very high. This Magnolia was one of the few exceptions...
A few other passerine dribs and drabs, we'll see how many are about in the predicted 20mph NW winds tomorrow for Birdathon...
