The game of the day was low volume but high diversity. 16 species of warblers were observed participating in morning flight in the first two hours after sunrise. An additional 2 species, Worm-eating and Common Yellowthroat, were also observed bring the total for the day up to 18. Good warbler diversity combined with an excellent sunrise, and another visit from the infamous Peregrine from yesterday made for a quality morning.
