Rick Waldrop, a birder from Tennessee, just called to report 2 Hudsonian
Godwits on the river side of the levee between the Potlatch paper mill and
Arkansas City. Also, there has been a pair of Mottled Ducks hanging out in
this area.
Good birding!

Hi, ARBIRD friends,
My parents (NE of Russellville) have a pair of Red-Headed Woodpeckers
nesting on their property. Mom called just now to say that she heard a
tremendous flurry of activity and went to check it out fearing that there
was trouble on the homestead (something invaded the nest last year leaving
one of the parents dead). Well, as it turns out, it is fledging day, and the
excited youngsters are getting their first taste of the real world while the
parents nervously try to keep them corralled, and fed. J

Subject: Rick Evans Grandview Prairie
From: Kelly Chitwood <kchitwood(AT)CABLELYNX.COM>

Spent a few hours this weekend at Rick Evans.
Waves of Pale Purple Coneflowers and Mexican Hat Coneflowers
moved with the wind. Painted Buntings have become fairly
dependable in their perch locations over the weekend.
My mother and I found four males and two females.
Grasshopper Sparrows are still present.
It's interesting, to me anyway, that when I first began
to seek PBs, they were rather evasive, so I thought.
That isn't to say that I'm making any claims to their
numbers or behavior, it's just that now
that I'm "used" to seeing them, it isn't unusual
to see one or two in the course of a good
day out in Pike and Hempstead Counties,
albeit fleeting glances are far more common
than the satisfying looks we all crave.
Back on the Little Missouri, the Louisiana Waterthrush
family is down to one offspring, but it's doing well
and still cute as can be. They stopped briefly on
our deck this morning before disappearing
in the vegetation.
Cheers!
