May 1 is Catbird Day

You can literally set your calendar by catbirds returning to Floral on May 1.  Having done a number of April 30 big days over the years I can tell you it's a tough, tough bird April 30.  You have to beat them off with sticks May 1.  Even with a cold spring it was no different today.


A Sedge Wren at the end of the cul-de-sac yesterday was a little more interesting though.


Winter Wrens are still around.

But May is for warblers right?  Orange-crowned has been fairly prominent this year.
Jan pointed this one out to Tim and me at Galien Twp park.
