I had hoped that the small front from the north would help bring some
migrants down into Quinta Mazatlan today, and it sure did! The bird walk
got to see several warbler species: Nashville, Black-and-White,
Yellow-rumped (both Myrtle and Audubon's), Orange-crowned, and
Black-throated Green.
There were also a few Broad-winged and one Swainson's Hawk migrating over.
All these migrant species, along with the summer and permanent residents
really getting into the breeding action, made it a great morning for
birding!
