After being fortunate enough to witness the deluge of migrants on South
Padre this morning (more orioles than I've ever before seen - or dreamed of
- surely well over 1000?), it was almost a relief for Donna and me to get
back to more manageable numbers at Mont Meta Cemetery in the afternoon. In
about an hour's birding we came across:
Eastern Wood-Pewee (5)
Acadian Flycatcher (1)
Yellow-throated Vireo (there's a coincidence, Brush!)
Blue-headed Vireo (2)
Red-eyed Vireo (1)
Swainson's Thrush (1)
Gray Catbird (3)
Ovenbird (1)
Worm-eating Warbler (1)
Golden-winged Warbler (1)
Black-and-white Warbler (4)
Tennessee Warbler (25+)
Yellow Warbler (3)
Hooded Warbler (1)
American Redstart (1)
Bay-breasted Warbler (2)
Chestnut-sided Warbler (2)
Black-throated Green Warbler (2)
Blackburnian Warbler (2)
Summer Tanager (4)
Painted Bunting (4)
Orchard Oriole (3) &
Baltimore Oriole (8).
On the Island we saw an additional 13 warbler species (Blue-winged,
Nashville, N. Parula, Magnolia, Prairie, Blackpoll, Cerulean, Prothonotary,
N. Waterthrush, Kentucky, Common Yellowthroat, Wilson's & Yellow-breasted
Chat) but dipped on the Swainson's & Canada.
