Marine Nature Study Area, Oceanside 21 Sep Finally a few migrants today, namely: several PALM WARBLERS and several SAVANNAH SPARROWS plus an EASTERN PHOEBE . A MARSH WREN that showed up yesterday and still here today is also probably a migrant along with a cooperative GREEN HERON. Shorebirds still not moving in; Forster's Terns lingering. The RED CANA LILIES continue to attract RUBY-THROATED HUMMINGBIRDS. In a space of 17 minutes (digital cameras time stamp the images), I managed to take 60 photos with my point and shoot super zoom, a third presentable for ID and a few OK (Wings blurred in all cases). Review of the photos showed at least 2 different birds.
