Many birders were out this morning to see if yesterdays influx would continue today. It surpassed yesterday with ease. We had a combined list of 85 species! 17 species of warblers highlighted by Worm-eating, Cerulean, Canada, Nashville and Northern Parula. Baltimore Orioles came in by the dozens. As we watched them on the Nature Trail, I spotted a female Orchard Oriole. She was soon joined by a male and then a juvenile male as well. Great Crested Flycatcher and Least Flycatchers joined the many Eastern Kingbirds. A Scarlet Tanager was singing on South Road. American Bitterns were flying about early in the day as were a couple of Green Herons. Many Solitary Sandpipers were seen as well. Hopefully the spectacle will continue tomorrow. John Haas
