Dry open bluff
At the start of the recording. Merlin id identified it but I’m still fairly uncertain. It seems like it could be but there is a lot of background noise and Merlin Id definitely isn’t always right. Also there’s the fact that they don’t live around here.
I was going to put it under either PISI ECDO or GCSP which are also in the recording but then this observation might not be found and if it is said bird then that would be a very interesting find that I wouldn’t want to be overlooked.
All though I looked for a while I didn’t find a bird fitting its description.
My best guess otherwise is a house finch? Maybe?
Any insights are very much appreciated.
50-60 plants, only B. amplissima in this spot but B. tripartita present in other areas around the pond
Roughly 50 plants in a mixed population with Bidens amplissima, about 100 plants total on the east side of the pond and another population of about 60 plants on the north side
Some plants with tripartite leaves and others without
