There were two Prothonotary Warblers countersinging from opposite sides of
Armitage Road at 4:30 pm on Monday afternoon (31 May 2011). These birds were
just 10-20 yards west of the little gravel pull-off area on the west side of
the one-lane green bridge. No sign of any Acadians at that time,
Yesterday at 6:30 pm I was able to hear and then see both Prothonotary
warblers. I recorded video of one to have the singing. They are LOUD at close
range.
This area is amazingly birdie.

This is a strange series of events. Having been a little confused by the
bridges on Armitage Rd myself on Sunday, I wonder if there is the possibility
of these being two separate spots? 3 calling Acadian FCs would seem to be hard
to miss by all the other Prothonotary seekers, and vice versa
When I plugged-in the provided coordinates the other day, Google
Earth landed me out in the open, hundreds of yards to the east. But
Matt Medler's description of the one-lane green bridge made it
clear that these birds are in just about the same spot where
Prothonotary Warblers were found
