24 September 2008

 

 

Fifteen birders were treated to an especially good outing at Radnor Lake
this morning. We observed 11 species of warblers, including a Black-throated
Blue Warbler, a very cooperative Blackburnian Warbler that gave us a good
study in this species' fall plumage, a not-so-secretive Wilson's Warbler,
several close up Canada Warblers as well as numerous Magnolia Warblers,
American Redstarts and a good number of Black-and-white Warblers.
