As August comes to an end the fall migration season will soon be here in full force. The next month will see a big movement of warblers as they head south until next spring.
So far for this fall migration season (August 15-November) I have found 23 species of warbler including some early migrants including two Tennessee Warblers on August 17, Connecticut Warbler, Cape May Warbler and two Northern Parula on August 29 and a Wilson's Warbler on August 24. The Connecticut Warbler is my earliest record ever around here and my first in August. It will be interesting to see how many Connecticut Warblers I can find this season and if I can come close to my record breaking season last year when I found an amazing ten individuals! More about last year at the following link:
Connecticut Warblers 2016. The Connecticut Warbler becomes warbler species #32 for the year in Hampshire County for me so far.
