A walk around the neighborhood parks yesterday found a large group of Azure-Winged Magpie mobbing a Eurasian Kestrel. Possibly the same Kestrel that woke me up at sunrise with it's loud "keeee - keeee". A worried Hoopoe trying to stay out of sight in the middle of all the commotion.
Most of my time was taken up with trying to get a good look at what turned out to be a good size group of Two-Barred Warbler. I had absent mindedly left my binoculars at home of course and wasn't sure if I was looking at Pallas's Leaf Warbler or Two-Barred. They were very actively chasing each other around and very shy, which didn't help.
