All,
It was a slow day at the wetlands with only 3 species of Warblers seen or
heard but one was a Mourning Warbler first for the year and perhaps last
too. Got great looks at a very bright male with no eye ring, greenish above
with some yellow feathers and bright lemon green below. Bill seemed large.
Bib was much darker than hood. Mourning was seen at a small bridge
overlooking a tiny stream or gulley near post 8 about halfway around the
boardwalk.
Later I explored a road nearby just North of Augusta Wetlands also marked as
a wildlife viewing area. I heard Sc tanagers, Great crested, Parula, and
Worm along this road.
see list below.
