Jim Lind and I walked in the back of Tettegouche Park yesterday in Lake County and heard/saw 5 Black-throated Blue Warblers. From my several visits this year nearly every time one is singing at the first junction from the back, about a 20' walk up the hill. Others are throughout the park. P

With all the posts on the Slaty-backed Gull, some people (like me) will still be driving up the shore for the gull. Black-throated Blue Warblers are still singing in good numbers on Oberg Mountain, west of Lutsen. When you reach the junction at the top, if you have not heard one yet, I sugges

Today on the west slope and top of Moose Mountain, at Lutsen in Cook County, I heard 8 Black-throated Blue Warblers, plus good numbers of other birds. This is about the number expected at this site at this time. In 2003 I first heard them a week earlier; last year a week later. On the same wa

I heard 11-12 different Black-throated Blue Warblers on or west of Moose Mtn near Lutsen today. Good numbers for that area. They are still singing also in Lake County. Mike
