Had 1 BLACKBURNIAN WARBLER sing a couple times on King Street Town of Barker in Broome Co this morning. This is the earliest I have had this specie in spring. This is also a place where several pairs nest so it is probably a nester returning. In addition, we had 1 BLACK-THROATED GREEN WARBLER calling with its sharp chip note and then we saw the bird. This specie also nests on King Street but was not singing for some reason. An early nester returning or a migrant? Additionally we had 2 NASHVILLE WARBLERS here (this is a little early) and of course several YELLOW-RUMPED and PINE WARBLERS which are typical now in this area.
