Well it was not a fallout, however it seemed like there were birds in every tree. It started early and at 7 :30 p.m., there was still birds to be found everywhere. 19 species of Warbler were counted including 3 Canada Warblers, Orange-crowned,Blackpoll, and a Wilson. It was not just the species but the numbers of each. Dozens of Cape May and Bay-breasted. Many females especially Black-throated-blue, where I had at least 15. I think this was better than any day last year. Other notables included, Scarlet Tanagers, both males and females. Orchard Orioles both males and female. Veery and Swainson were the most plentiful Thrushes. Baltimore Orioles were busy nest building throughout the day. I think for those that came today they did not go home disappointed. There were many Novice birders there who were thrilled with the lifers they acquired.
