Another slow start to the birding day made me feel badly as many people on the walk were from out of town. They were here hoping for some warbler fallout but this morning was foggy and damp. Our first good looks were at of a Yellow-breasted Chat. Then we added a Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, Black and White Warblers, Yellow-rumped Warblers, Northern Parula, Prairie Warbler, Blackpoll Warbler, Yellow Warbler and Common Yellowthroats. As the morning progressed the sunshine began to peek through and the birds started to flit around the treetops so the walk ended with a decent list of birds. Sadly it was time to say goodbye to my new birding friends Michael and Lois as they leave for NY. Over the past 2 days I also met some birders traveling the US from Vancouver Island, Canada so chatted with them a short while before the were off for another afternoon of fun in our area.
