Happy Weekend

Nice weather Friday in Erie, PA, with sunshine and cool/mild temps. Looks like more sun for the weekend – happy times for birding/nature!

Here, the “pre-shot of the weekend,” lovely Chipping Sparrow on flowering tree, Pine Tree Trail, Presque Isle State Park:


Happy to report the Gray Catbirds! are back, e.g., here off the Sidewalk Trail:

Gray Catbird!

Anecdotally, with the nicer weather, receiving reports of increased warbler activity at Presque Isle, at least re. Palm, Yellow-rumped, and Yellow:

Yellow Warbler (m), Long Pond Trail

Wishing everyone a nice weekend!
