Hopefully, next trip the sun will remain with you a bit longer.<br /><br />We will be happy to send you some of our summer as we seem to have plenty of it! Although, beware, it may come with more steamy heat and humidity than you might care for.<br /><br />Our woods have gone a bit quiet in the past few days. Likely due to parents teaching youngsters to keep a low profile when two-legged creatures are roaming around. Some species are also going through a molt which will cause them to be very quiet since they would have trouble flying away from predators.<br /><br />My records indicate we can expect "fall" migration to actually begin almost any time now. Fully expect to see an American Redstart or Black-and-White Warbler next week. We'll see. Meantime, the Swallow-tailed Kites are grouping up in preparation for their trek to South America.<br /><br />Have a great new week, Phil! We will, too.Wally Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01121368850135565674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526180646938954660.post-191222749238930622020-07-20T16:02:00.769+01:002020-07-20T16:02:00.769+01:00My dear friend Phil, Happy new week!

I told myself while carefully admiring the birds (Oh the Chiffchaff and that Willow Warbler looks soooo identical and then I scrolled next and found your differentiation and I very much thank you for it. the colors look so identical but the feathers do look very different. I really admire your sharpness on birding. I saw a medium sized bird last week on my garden and it was so beautiful! As always I always thought about you whenever I see birds everywhere :)<br /><br />Have a great new week Phil!Stevenson Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12137070659644887162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526180646938954660.post-47524060494182338092020-07-20T15:40:28.320+01:002020-07-20T15:40:28.320+01:00Very attractive birdies and I love the description...Very attractive birdies and I love the descriptionsCarol @Comfort Spring Stationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18308702098757071897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526180646938954660.post-59300869577388480672020-07-19T20:23:02.493+01:002020-07-19T20:23:02.493+01:00Quite a variety of birds!Quite a variety of birds!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07094543520943386032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526180646938954660.post-49734737006122290942020-07-19T13:13:27.756+01:002020-07-19T13:13:27.756+01:00Interesting post Phil and I love your wing descrip...Interesting post Phil and I love your wing descriptions.

The weather has been awful here all week too, bar the odd hour or two in the evenings.Certainly not conducive to birding or ringing. I have my fingers crossed for next week.
