More information than anyone really wants to know. Familial obligations disallowed me from tending to the warbler flock at Belmar this weekend and I have to say I pulled out a hankie and wiped my eyes when I read Mr. Chavez's post with regard to the "oddies" (my word not in the Oxford) he discovered. A complete breakdown follows: On 9/1 Mr. J S (eBird shared records) reported 2 YEWA and 1 WIWA. On 9/3 I had 2 YEWA and 1 WIWA. On 9/13 I had 4 YERU, 2 TOWA and 9 WIWA. On 9/20 I had 2 OCWA, 47 YRWA, 2 TOWA and 4 WIWA. On 9/21 I had 1 OCWA, 53 YRWA, 1 TOWA , 1 AMRE (oddie), 1 MAWA (oddie), and 3 WIWA. On 9/22 PJ R (eBird shared records) had 26 YRWA. On 9/23 PJ R (eBird shared records ) had 6 YRWA. On 9/23 D F (eBird shared records) had 6 YRWA. On 9/23 M C had 5 OCWA, X YRWA, 1 PAWA (very oddie), 2 BPWA (very oddie), and 4 WIWA. Does this mean anything? I think so. Art Hudak Denver County On Sunday, September 23, 2012 4:09:38 PM UTC-6, Mark wrote:
