T.O.S. Sabine Woods was a bit slow today up until 1:45 PM, but a lot better
than High Island has been recently.  We had singles of Northern Waterthrush,
Black-and-white Warbler, Common Yellowthroat, Northern Parula, Bay-breasted,
Yellow, and Chestnut-sided.  At Texas Point NWR we added American Redstart.
Especially after 1:45 PM, other migrants were much more numerous with large
numbers of Orchard Orioles and Eastern Kingbirds and good numbers of
Baltimore Orioles, Indigo Buntings and Painted Buntings and at least one
Scarlet Tanager.  Others were Philadelphia Vireo, Eastern Wood-Pewee, Great
Crested Flycatcher, Swainson's Thrush, Wood Thrush, Rose-breasted Grosbeak
and Blue Grosbeak.

Reported by other birders were Kentucky Warbler and Gray-cheeked Thrush.

McFaddin NWR was interesting and we especially enjoyed 6+ easily approached
Common Nighthawks and 3-4 Least Bitterns.
