Greetings, Saturday brought a decent push of warblers throughout the day in my back yard near Birchwood in Sawyer County. I managed to get 13 species by late afternoon. Waves were pretty consistent in early morning and then again in late afternoon, especially between 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. Birds included were: Nashville Tennessee Black-and-white Black-throated Green (most numerous) Blackburnian Chestnut-sided Northern Parula (decent numbers) Bay-breasted Blackpoll Yellow-rumped Redstart (decent numbers) Magnolia Cape May Suprising was the absence of Golden-winged which were very numerous 2 weeks ago. I've included a few shots of one Black-throated Green that decided to stop down for a drink and cool off under the mist. http://inlinethumb29.webshots.com/43164/2371765620104648965S600x600Q85.jpg http://inlinethumb41.webshots.com/29096/2226323010104648965S600x600Q85.jpg http://inlinethumb44.webshots.com/45675/2836067010104648965S600x600Q85.jpg http://inlinethumb18.webshots.com/9873/2559518140104648965S600x600Q85.jpg http://inlinethumb31.webshots.com/44830/2295962720104648965S600x600Q85.jpg http://inlinethumb50.webshots.com/4209/2054991530104648965S600x600Q85.jpg http://inlinethumb35.webshots.com/44770/2262429990104648965S600x600Q85.jpg I also managed to "pish" out 3 juncos at the end of my driveway from a thicket at the ponds edge. Seems pretty early for them to be around, I usually don't see them in the area until October.
