Despite my efforts, Morning Flight was rained out this morning! I made it through the first hour after sunrise before driving rain from the east heralded our first rain out day of the season. Womp womp, it happens.
While today wasn’t a good *flight* day, there are lots of warblers are on Cape May Point right now -- they just aren’t flying! Hidden Valley and the Northwood Center/Lake Lily are loaded up with migrants that have arrived over the past few days and are ready to fly south as soon as conditions change-- redstarts, parulas, Black-and-whites, plus good numbers of Blackpoll and Cape May Warblers.
And speaking of change, later this week looks good for Morning Flight as moderate to light NW/NNW winds are in the forecast for Wednesday night going into Thursday night and Friday night going into Saturday. Keep an eye on the forecast and come on down if the prediction comes true! A fresh influx of migrants will hopefully be here!
As always, you can find the link to the official count on Trektellen here and the complete eBird checklist here.
Bring on Day 56!
