No luck relocating the Townsend's Warbler either last night or this
morning. In fact, there seemed to be a near complete turn-over of
birds overnight.
On Thurs (6 Oct) I had a flurry of activity with 7 warbler species
including the Townsend's, Red-eyed and White-eyed Vireo, first
Ruby-crowned Kinglets and White-throated Sparrow of the season,
Wood Thrush, lots of Indigo Buntings, a handful of hummers, and a
few swifts.
On Fri (7 Oct) things were much slower with only a single Bay-breasted
Warbler, 1 RT hummer, and a few Indigo Buntings but did add a fly-by
immature Red-headed Woodpecker and Blue Grosbeak (both new species
for the yard year-list) as well as a male Rose-breasted Grosbeak
and an E Wood-Pewee.
On a late note, I didn't have a chance to post before heading to
Detroit but on 1 Oct, I had 10 warbler species in the yard including
a late-ish Yellow-breasted Chat which flew into the same patch of
honeysuckle as the one a week earlier and disappeared (concievably
the same bird given the close timing of my only two sightings for
this species in the yard).
