I continued to have some good luck with fall warblers for the last few days including another Connecticut Warbler at Silvio Conte NWR-Fort River on the 10th and one that was cooperative (at least as far as CT warblers go).  I had a total of 22 species of warbler during the three day period between September 9-11.  Besides the previously mentioned Connecticut Warbler and Yellow breasted Chat highlights included Tennessee, Cape May and Bay breasted Warblers.  That brings my total warblers in the county for the year so far to 31.  The likelihood of adding any more species at this point is quite low but you never know...it would take a rarity at this point.  My overall total of warbler species for the year worldwide is at 35 with the additional species coming from Costa Rica and Florida.
