Good evening,
Warnimont Park was/is absolutely insane today! I'm not sure I've ever
witnessed the amount of bird activity that I saw today. I had 22 warbler
species, including Yellow-breasted Chat, Cerulean, Black-throated Blue and
Golden-winged. I missed Bay-breasted by a few minutes, which would've been
23. I also found a LeConte's Sparrow, along the bluff. As I was leaving
with 99 species, Dave called me and said Northern Mockingbird! I turned
around and saw that for number 100! I had FOY's, American White Pelican,
Least Flycatcher, Wilson's Warbler, Bobolink, Sedge Wren, Red-eyed Vireo,
and Indigo Bunting. What a day! Here is my checklist from today.
