Hi all, As soon as I saw Mark Chao's report of warblers at Sapsucker Woods, I headed over there (around 10 am). I first walked the north part of the Wilson Trail, up to the Sherwood Platform but didn't come across any migrant flocks. I headed back toward the building, going along the pond. As I approached the trail that heads north (by the fence/gate), I found one black and white warbler. Then I realized there were more birds flitting around and found a flock that consisted of:
1 scarlet tanager 2 northern parula warblers 2 red-eyed vireos 1 bay breasted warbler. And, lots of mosquitoes That was around 10:30. I then crossed the road to bird on the east side of Sapsucker Woods and found a second flock as I was walking along the Woodleton boardwalk. This was around 11:30. As I stood on the boardwalk facing north, a flock approached me, feeding low in the trees as the birds flew over my head and continued south. It was really nice! 2 black-throated green warblers 1 bay breasted 2 magnolia warblers 2 chestnut sided warblers 1 northern parula 1 common yellowthroat 1 Nashville warbler 1 black and white warbler And more that I couldn't get on fast enough. I was happy to find this flock so late in the morning!
