Last night's good weather and southern wind spurred almost all of Friday's birds out and away , leaving the birders today to work for the birds whatever remained . In true workmanship, people helped in the spirit of birding getting others the good bird or the personal first of the season bird or simply passing along word what's been seen.
IN that spirit, some good birds were found.Collectively, 20 species warblers were accounted for .Its a high number given the fast track birds gave us leaving the party so soon :)> . Hilights included HOODED WARBLER heard singing , then found on the slope behind the building inside the Quaker Cemetery; male Indigo Bunting closer to the main gate. Worm-eating Warbler and Blackburnian Warbler ( gorgeous!) at the Environmental Bond sign north of Ricks Place, Scarlet Tanagers ( thumbs up for me, my first life bird), 2 Orange-crowned Warblers in the Bald Cypress tree at Binnen Bridge, & Nashville among the lot. Solitary Sandpiper in the wee hours at the south lakeside near West Island and also much later the Lullwater at the Terrace Bridge and Lily Pond with several Spotted Sandpipers to add .Yellow-throated Vireo, Broad-winged Hawk (circling with a RT Hawk, 10.15am over Nethermead),White-crowned Sparrow (Battle Pass, late pm),Ruby -throated Hummingbird ,Great Crested Flycatcher , Rose-Breasted Grosbeaks also made appearances.
