VA Birders,
There seemed to be a lull yesterday in the passerine migration through my
yard. I had only 11migrant species. The action did pickup somewhat this
morning with 32 species of which 16 were migrants. Since I didn't post
yesterday I am listing the migrants for both days. I was surprised to find I
had a Swainsons and a Veery. This week was the first time this year for
these two species to show up in my area.
