Warblers 14

Black-throated Blue Warbler Setophaga caerulescens
Magnolia Warbler Setophaga magnolia
Lincoln’s Sparrow Melospiza lincolnii
  It rained all damn morning. Things were going slow and rain-damny all the way through NDN and Mountain View, but when I got to the area between N2 and G7 (just east of the cannons), I took shelter under a small stand of pines, and found myself in gilded company – the trees were jam-packed with warblers! Two distinct waves came through during the next 45 minutes. The warblers fed and sheltered in the pines, then headed northwest towards Mountain View. As the rain backed off in the early afternoon, tall trees in most corners of the cemetery were found to contain warblers. Ended with a nice round 50 species
