Friday (12 September) was my best warbler day so far this fall in Duluth. A total of 253 individuals of 23 species was counted (did not see Golden-winged, Black-throated Blue, or Connecticut warblers). Except for an Orange-crowned Warbler at Indian Point, and a Northern Waterthrush and Mourning Warbler at 40th Ave West, all of the warbler species were found on Park Point between the bus turnaround and the Beach House at the Recreation Area. Also seen were 5 species of vireo and dozens of Chipping and White-throated sparrows.
