We had 37 species of birds in the yard today. Notable were 14 species of warbler ( highlights were Parula, Pine, Mourning, Wilson and Blackburnian), 4 species of vireos and a Redbreasted Nuthatch. Also had 4 Rosebreasted Grosbeaks along with the 12 hummingbirds from yesterday. The fun started at 8 AM and continued through 11AM with a few birds in the afternoon. Expect to not see much tomorrow with the north wind.
