Craig's Feeders

On Tuesday May 7th I went out to Doney Park hoping to see two birds that had been at Craig's feeders since Saturday. Alas a Sharp-shinned Hawk came through soon after I arrived and his feeders stayed pretty empty for the hour I was there!

I tried again on Wednesday May 8th and this time the hawk stayed away. I got to see the Bobolink although it stayed beneath some shrubs (making a clear photo impossible!), but had no luck with the Brown Thrasher, a bird I have had no success with in Arizona. The thrasher had been visiting Craig's feeders since November!

Craig's feeders also attracted a Lazuli Bunting and we got to see a Black-throated Gray Warbler take a bath.
