Backyard Covid-19 Birding

Spring has come, meaning migration has too. Warblers, thrushes etc. But since the U.S. and CT has the Covid-19 I decided to bird in my backyard. 

the story: 

One day, while eating lunch I saw a rare Sandhill Crane flyover (new yard bird)

(The next day)

I saw a House Wren in my backyard, so I went out and got some photographs. But then I heard a Northern Parula (new yard bird), then a Baltimore Oriole, and three male Scarlet Tanagers (new yard bird)! Then I heard a Yellow-rumped warbler (new yard bird). While looking at the cardinal nest, I saw a Melospiza sparrow. It was an early Lincoln's Sparrow! (new yard bird) I got a few photos. Then a White-crowned Sparrow landed in the bush (new yard bird). Than I heard a bird calling a "chebek!". It was a Least Flycatcher! So I saw a lot of new yard birds!

So here is the species I had this spring migration so far: 

Sandhill Crane

Tree Swallow

Barn Swallow

White-crowned Sparrow

Lincoln's Sparrow
