Riverbend was slower today than in recent days. Few migrants were present
as the Sun struggled to break through the cloud cover. A few notable species
are listed below, but I was only able to record a meager 35 species for the day
over a period of about 2 hours. Good migrant numbers are still being reported
in PA and NY, so perhaps a change in the weather pattern can bring us more
soon...
Winter Wren (1)
Lincoln's Sparrow (1)
Swamp Sparrow (1)
Scarlet Tanager (1)
Baypoll (5)
Northern Parula (4)
Magnolia Warbler (2)
Belted Kingfisher (1 - flyover)
I reported a possible Orange-crowned Warbler on Thursday, and this would
be an early report for the species. I was speaking with one other birder
today at Riverbend who thought he saw one as well, I think yesterday.
Perhaps they are a little early this year.
