[mou-net] Migrants up north (St Louis co)

2011-05-14 Thread Ben Yokel
In spite of (or perhaps because of) the unpleasant weather conditions, our yard 
has been swarming with migrants for the last few days, including a male summer 
tanager (seen and photographed yesterday by Heidi and new for our yard list; 
not present today) and 24 species of warbler (including black throated blue; no 
Canada or Connecticut).  

Still no orioles and very few flycatchers or vireos.

Ben raises an interesting issue:  I have searched in vain for a Canada warbler; 
I've seen virtually everything else during that search (ok, no cerulean or Conn 
either) but not one single Canada. 
The question I have: where are they?  Is it the cold, nasty rainy weather?  
Anybody else seeing them?

Thanks for the input.

There was a Canada Warbler up close at head height, just off the trail
on the north side of the large lake at Crosby Farm Park in St. Paul
last Wednesday. It was a short distance in from the east entrance
ramp. The bird happened to be foraging near a Magnolia Warbler and
both gave great looks, to make the comparison between them very easy
to do.
