Good morning birders,
The day started with hundreds of swallows streaming over the tip.
Throughout the park it has been a buzzy morning with 25 warbler species . A
YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER off of woodland nature trail. At White Pine, a
HOODED WARBLER and ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER were reported. At Sanctuary, a
WORM-EATING WARBLER was seen singing. YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT continues to be
showing well in the cactus field. A SUMMER TANAGER was reported on the
Woodland Nature Trail about 100 m south of the Nature Centre.
After a colder night of North winds, many of the warblers in Tilden were
down low, gracing birders with wonderful eye-level views.
WILSON’S PHALAROPE continues at Hillman Marsh Shorebird Cell along with a
WILLET.
Good Birding,
Julie, Max, Felix, Pete, Mark, Aaron
