The Cape May warbler in Edina at 5410 York was actually feeding on the feeder 
when I arrived at 2:45pm. It was very windy and frigid so the bird must have to 
eat a lot of peanuts just to stay alive. I have never seen a bird look so cold 
before! I did a little research in the Peterson guide to warblers and I guess 
this is the second most likely warbler in many northern climates this time of 
year after the Yellow-rumped Warbler. It also says that most of the stray Cape 
May's do not typically survive through December which was a little sad. Lets 
hope that this one can make it. Great find!
Happy Thanksgiving,
