Songbird migration has come to a virtual standstill so tonight's promising winds couldn't be more timely. Warbler "diversity" (and I use that term lightly) was down to a season-low today and very few warblers were seen. Period. Only the swarm of staging Eastern Kingbirds (~123) provided some air-borne passerines in any sizable number.
Ruby-throated Hummingbird - 6
Red-bellied Woodpecker - 1
Eastern Kingbird - 7
"Traill's" Flycatcher - 1
Northern Mockingbird - 1
American Redstart - 11
Worm-eating Warbler - 1
Northern Waterthrush - 1
warbler sp. - 1
Blue Grosbeak - 1
Bobolink - 35
Total = 66
Highlights, in general, were limited, although 4 Black Terns were again seen today. In fact, Black Terns have become expected from Higbee in recent weeks.
