A visit to Fort Zach this morning yielded three more birds for 2026 bringing my YTD total to 151.  Sounds nice except last year I finished April at 362.  Of course, I have not been to Minnesota, West Virginia, New Jersey, Arizona or Texas this year.  So, that pretty much explains the difference.

After picking up an Indigo Bunting and this Black-whiskered Vireo...


I found a tree littered with warblers.  Like this Black-throated Blue Warbler, they were hunting for very small worms among the Jamaican Dogwood blossoms.



The Palm Warblers were everywhere.  This one was also busy hunting before taking a break from the feeding frenzy.



Previously, I noted how Henry and I take long walks most days.  We usually do 2 to 4 miles each day with him riding his tricycle and me steering him safely out of harm's way.  And, that we typically find discarded coins during our outings.  Here, Henry displays the coins that put us at $100.00 found in 2026 as of April 8.  We started keeping track this year just out of curiosity but, I'd estimate we have found at least $250 since we started our walks.


I do not understand why people in Key West hate money so much.  Yesterday, we found $3.95 on our walks.  Oh well, Henry and OG's piggy banks appreciate the deposits.
