Friday brought a much more relaxed flight past the dike, with a lot of
birds appearing to not really be in the mood to push back north with any
urgency. The humidity was up a tad, accompanied by a light S/SW breeze
and some low fog. It was a nice morning for appreciating the diversity
of mid-September in Cape May, with fine looks at Blackburnian Warbler,
Scarlet Tanager, and Rose-breasted Grosbeak, among others.
Some selected totals:
Tennessee Warbler – 3
American Redstart – 39
Cape May Warbler – 1
Magnolia Warbler – 1
Blackburnian Warbler – 1
Chestnut-sided Warbler – 1
Blackpoll Warbler – 6
Black-throated Blue Warbler – 1
