Late yesterday pm I had very good birding during my fast exercise walk
looping around Upper Buttermilk. (I always take by binocs on these
walks, Dave.) I usually try to see/hear at least 10 species. This time
I set a record for this time of year with 24 species. It seems that
many birds apparently decided to abort their migration due to the
drizzly, overcast conditions of the night before. The highlights were:
6 woodpecker species, including YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKER, SWAINSON'S
THRUSH, and 4 warblers - MAGNOLIA, BLACK-THROATED BLUE, BLACK-THROATED
GREEN, and BLACKPOLL.
