Good morning birders, There seem to be more birds around this morning than there have been for the past few days.
One of the Yellow-throated Warblers was seen again at the Visitor Centre feeders at 8:30 am. Both Golden-winged x Blue-winged Warbler hybrids, Brewster's and Lawrence's Warbler, were seen at the east entrance of South Point Trail. The Pony Barn was reasonably busy with warblers this morning, including the continuing Hooded Warbler in the brush pile on the south side as well as Blue-winged and 2 lovely male Blackburnians. Many Nashville Warblers and both Baltimore and Orchard Orioles have been feeding in the flowering Cottonwoods on the north side of the clearing. Thank you to everyone who contributed sightings and please continue to do so at the Visitor Centre.
