There were 22 warbler species this morning at Carver Park. 5 of those species were in the largest wave of the morning at the rec area. That area is hit and miss, and when I got there it was pretty quiet. After hiking away from the rec area for about 20 minutes I returned and realized that things had changed when I heard a Black-throated Green Warbler. The Black-throated Green was quite courteous and hung out low in a tree giving me good looks. At one point there were 2 male Cape May and a male Bay-breasted Warbler together in the same low branch. After about 30 minutes of really good activity at the rec area it gradually quieted.
