Hi All,
The warblers and other migrants are becoming fewer as we get closer to
mid-October. We haven't seen a hummer in the last couple of days. Yesterday I
had 33 species including another Philadelphia Vireo and a couple of White-eyed
Vireos, which have been scarce up here this year, though I know David Raines
has been seeing some at his place. I photographed a juvenile male Common
Yellowthroat that has a lot of brown on his head - photos below.
Here are the highlights of the day:
American Redstart 2 (1m, 1f)
Bay-breasted Warbler 1
Magnolia Warbler 2
Yellow-rumped Warbler 2
Brown Thrasher 1
Common Yellowthroat 2 (1juv m, 1f)
Gray Catbird 6
Indigo Bunting 4f
Philadelphia Vireo 1
White-eyed Vireo 2
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker 2
Notice that the brown doesn't show as much from the side view. Notice also the
gray cheeks which are the beginnings of his black mask as an adult.
