Yesterday Bob Tyler and I birded Ward’s Island and small parts of Algonquin and Snake Islands and though migration is very slow starting we did find some new birds but only only 6 warblers, 5 single species and 2 Redstarts and another N. Waterthrush.
We also saw 4 Great Egrets, a first fall Broad-winged Hawk, a few Chimney Swifts, several Hummingbirds, 6 Flycatcher species, again in very small numbers, Gnatcatchers, a Black-billed Cuckoo, House and Carolina Wrens. Hopefully things pick up soon.
