Good morning birders, The cool foggy morning was brightened by a good migration in last night. The Tip was hopping with many warblers and other birds seen at close range as they foraged low down. There was a moderate reverse migration. Both Woodland Nature and Tilden Woods Trails were quite active as well. The number of warbler species in the Park so far is 21. These included LOUISIANA WATERTHRUSH in Tilden. CAPE MAY, NORTHERN PARULA, BLACK-THROATED BLUE, AMERICAN REDSTART, MOURNING WARBLER, GOLDEN-WINGED, WILSON’S and many more. A good number of Thrushes have now arrived. A number of AMERICAN PIPIT were seen at the Tip. A RED-THROATED LOON and LONG-TAILED DUCK were also noted there. A SEDGE WREN was noted along the West Beach Trail near the “Serengeti” tree. Outside of the Park, a YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER was near Pelee Wings/Mersea Park. A LITTLE GULL was spotted at Hillman Marsh in the shorebird cell. WILLET and MARBLED GODWIT have been reported from East Beach Road.
