Today was the first big late season flight. Over 12,500 total birds were tallied, dominated by warblers with Yellow-rumped and Palm being the only truly dominant species, though Northern Parula put in a strong showing as well. Highlights aside from the spectacle included an impressive showing of Red-bellied Woodpeckers (18) and good numbers of Tennessee Warblers.
