[Tweeters] Douglas County Birding June 4-6

[Tim Brennan]

Hey Tweets!

I made my June trip over to Douglas County, and if I added things up right, I think it was 120 species for the trip, including 11 species of ducks, 5 varieties of fancy chickens, 5 thrushes, 9 flycatchers, 3 vireos, 6 finches,  11 sparrows, 8 warblers, 2 owls, and a bushtit!

Badger Mountain and Big Bend Wildlife Area were responsible for most of the sightings, and will get blogged and eBirded over the next few days, although I also had a Wilson's Phalarope (and many ducks) at the Waterville STP, and (finally) a Loggerhead Shrike on one of those roads in the North middle of the county... you know, the roads with the letter names? Also got my Douglas life list up to 198 in the process, which has always been a big goal.

Happy Birding!
