It was a wonderful migration morning at Radnor Lake.
Weather was initially cool and there were numerous
flocks of migrants.  Phillip Casteel and I wandered
ahead of the regular NTOS group and found it well
worth our while.  While MAGNOLIA WARBLERs dominated
in numbers (40+), PHILADELPHIA VIREOs were more numerous
that I have ever seen them, we counted 15 and there
were likely more, some pale and others in much brighter
yellow plumage.  The only species of vireo missing from 
our morning was WARBLING.  BLACK-THROATED GREEN WARBLERs 
also made an impressive showing as did ROSE-BREASTED 
GROSBEAKs.  One YELLOW-BELLIED FLYCATCHER called and 
posed long enough to be identified.

Yellow-bellied Flycatcher 1
White-eyed Vireo 2
Blue-headed Vireo 1
