Yesterday(5/13) at Rapids Lake MVNWR I covered about half the area that I
covered either 5/11 or 5/12 and turned up 15 warbler species with a significant
increase in Yellow-rumped Warbler numbers in the areas covered. Today(5/14) I
covered the same areas as yesterday plus a bit more.and found 21 warbler
species with a significant decrease in Yellow-rumped Warbler numbers.
