Rare Birds That I Have Seen In The Last Couple Of Weeks

In the last couple of weeks I have seen three rare birds. One is a white throated sparrow. Two is a palm warbler. Three is a eurasian wigeon. I will first talk about the eurasian wigeon. I saw the eurasian wigeon down at the park a week or two ago with a bunch of american wigeon the eurasian wigeon was a female so it was not super oveaus but I saw a female wigeon that had a bit of redish brown head compared to the grayish colored head of an american wigeon. I was still not one hundred percent sure that it was a female eurasian wigeon so when I got home I look in a few different bird books and online and decided that it was indeed a eurasian wigeon. The next bird it a palm warbler. I have seen two palm warblers in the last week week and a half one was down by the lake and the other was up by price street. The one at the lake I had been looking for the cape may warbler that dad had seen a week or two ago but had not been able to find it so I was going to look around the lake to see what birds I saw there. I was at the low end of the lake when I saw a warbler fly in to a bush. I realized that it was a palm warbler it was only the second palm warbler I had ever seen in sitka so I took some photos of it a followed it around for a bit then I went to the lake and went home. The second palm warbler that I had seen I saw up by price street and I saw it today while I was on my bike. I got a few photos of it but not many before it flew away. The finale rare bird I saw a was a white throated sparrow I was in the park and rowan told me the bird she had seen the day before was over there and so I went over there and took some photos of then went home.pw                                                 palm warbler by price streetwhite-throated-sparrow                                       white throated sparrow at the park palm-warbler-at-lake                                                  palm warbler at the lake eurasian-wigeon-hen-jpgthere is an american wigoen on top and a eurasian wigeon on the bottom in the top photo eurasian-wigeon-hen                                                      eurasian wigeon
