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

Re: [mou-net] Migrants up north (St Louis co)
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. Tom Thomas P.

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.
