Area Birders, This past week I have been occupied with other tasks and have not been posting the migrants passing through our property here on Compton Mt in Southwest VA. Here is a summary of the different migratory species I have been seeing from September 12 - 16: ( I had the first Swainson's and Gray-cheeked Thrushes of the season, the first of the season, Yellow-rumped Warbler and the second Palm Warbler of the season.)
