Young male Yellow-headed Blackbird Harrison. The gape indicates a young bird. It was alone and migrating all by itself. One wonders how it knows where to go. |

Sept 12 we decided to see what was at the airport in Hope. The following is what we found. |
Gray Catbird was chomping down on berries and mewing in delight. |
A Clay-colored Sparrow popped up on to the fence. North side, east of terminal. |
On the north side of the runway, just west of the terminal, we found this Upland Sandpiper. |
The tall grass was making it difficult to spot. |
