| American Redstart Setophaga ruticilla |
| Song Sparrow Melospiza melodia |
-Rainy and 13 - lovely out if you ask me.
-Started slow, but got on a thin warbler trickle in some dense woods. Two American Redstarts and a Black-throated Green Warbler were briefly but well seen, before they lasered through the treetops, as warblers do.
-Had to work for the birds in the rain – really dig through the deep tangles.
-Strong winds made getting on contact calls difficult.
-No sign of the Red-eyed Vireos that oversummer in this location.
-Haven’t seen a Chimney Swift since August 16.
-11 species in 90 minutes.
