The birds really dropped into our yard yesterday. We had 13 warbler species.
I suppose Hurricane Irma has held some of them back, so hopefully the next
few days will produce a lot of migrants. I put out grapes on Tuesday and the
warblers have found them. (see photos).
We also had a Summer Tanager and Rose-breasted Grosbeaks, as well as a
Yellow-billed Cuckoo.
Below is the complete list of the 23 migrants that stopped by.
Enjoy the fall migration. It is at its peak right now.
