Today is another cold (4th of May!) day in Springtime Chicagoland, and I thought I'd check out what was happening around our stream in the back of the property.

| Our backyard "Rio Seco", perfect Warbler habitat |
To my delight I soon found myself (still) surrounded by Yellow and Yellow-rumped Warblers, as well as the Ruby-crowned Kinglet community who are all still waiting to migrate and leave us for the season. The Yellows are actually the most vocal ones, and very recognizable in their song. The Kinglets and Yellow-rumps were way too busy looking for food. I hope the Yellows, being non-migrators here in northern Illinois, will indeed stick around the watering hole for a long time!
