This morning I visited Back Bay NWR after David Clark's good Razorbill count
yesterday. I was fortunate to observe 109 heading south in the first 45 minutes
after daybreak. Also moving south were good numbers of Red-throated Loons. All
3 scoter species were present, as well as good numbers of Horned Grebes.
Of possible interest was one of the two Orange-crowned Warblers observed along
the entry road to Back Bay NWR upon leaving this morning. The first individual
(second row) was a very bright yellow below, with yellow-green eye-ring and a
yellowish was to face and throat, a possible candidate for "lutescens(?)".
