Well, the winter storm has shut down the airport!!! No departures or new arrivals. The Orchard Oriole and Cape May Warbler are still sharing the jelly with the Balt. Orioles and the Lincoln's Sparrows are still here too. A pair of nesting Towhees, lots of White-throats and White Crowns and Catbirds too. The Brown Thrashers and Carolina Wrens have become quiet after singing constantly when it was warmer.
Hope the storm front leaves quickly so the Ruby-Throats can catch a flight in!!!
