Weekend Arrivals - the woods are busy!

[SunUp]

We live in a wooded area, and it's so much fun to see who arrives this time of year. Yesterday's new arrivals:
Woodthrush - yay!! Love them so much.
Oriole
Scarlet Tanager
Ovenbird
Great Crested Flycatcher
Warblers of many kinds
Rose Breasted Grosbeak

And others I'm sure I'm missing.
What have you guys been seeing/hearing recently?

Heya! Long time no see how are you and the flock?
I've seen a small flock of Orioles on Saturday so that was excited.

Hi April! Thanks for saying hi! That must have been a beautiful sight!

Hi April! Thanks for saying hi! That must have been a beautiful sight!

It was indeed,I've never seen them in my work yard before so that was thrilling.

I seem to have mostly Northern Cardinals and Carolina Wrens at the moment. I haven't seen an Oriole around here, ever! I'm so envious!!

@ Sun up and @April -- Wish I knew where you both lived, so I could be hopeful the Orioles and Grosbeaks would be coming here SOON! The weather went from Winter to Summer then back again--- WHEN oh WHEN will it get warm!!!??? Bought oranges especially for them a month ago!

I'm in the Mid-Atlantic. They should be there soon! Just saw a Grosbeak yesterday. Do you follow BirdCast? I check this first thing every morning. It's so awe inspiring to "see" the nightly migration activity. This time of year there are hundreds of millions of birds on the move every night while we all snooze in our beds.
