With moderately strong winds from the southeast, I didn't figure too much would be flying. So I was pleasantly surprised with the birds that were actually northward bound. Most warblers, however, were flying southeast, and into the wind. The highlight from the morning flight was a single White-breasted Nuthatch (only the second for 2012) and five small groups of Pine Siskins (29). Otherwise, 99 warblers of 11 species were noted.
