The past few days have brought lots of migrants to our place here at White 
Marsh in Gloucester County.  Most of the birds were sighted between 7 and 8 
a.m. while we ate breakfast in the sunroom.  They were:
    Rose-breasted Grosbeak
    Swainson's Thrush
    Veery
    Red-eyed Verio
    Acadian Flycatcher
    Phoebe
    Warblers:  Blue-winged, Black-throated Blue, Black-            throated 
Green, Worm-eating, Common Yellowthroat,         Black & White and Blackpoll.
The 15-20 Ruby-throated Hummingbirds we have enjoyed for the past month have 
decreased to seven.  We are also seeing lots of young Goldfinch begging their 
parents for food.
