Hi everyone, I know there were quite a few reports from Sapsucker Woods yesterday, but I did see a few things that I didn't see reported. I had 14 warbler species, including close looks at 7:40 of the BAY-BREASTED in the pine trees near the feeders. Yellow-rumped Warblers were DRIPPING from the trees along the Wilson Trail boardwalk. It was hard to estimate, but I'd say about 40. Saw one male and female SCARLET TANAGER. A male RUBY-THROATED HUMMINGBIRD was performing his pendulum flight display for a female on the east side of the pond. Heard one RUSTY BLACKBIRD calling repeatedly at the south end of the pond. It was a great morning with really impressive numbers. I still can't believe I had 60 species in such a small area! Photos coming soon! See checklist below. -Evan Barrientos
