July warblers


Yellow rumped Warbler 'audubon's', Rocky Mountain NP, CO, Jul 9, 2018
Chestnut sided Warbler, Prescott Peninsula, New Salem, MA, Jul 7, 2018
MacGillivray's Warbler, Rocky Mountain NP, CO, Jul 11, 2018
The month of July is not known for being a great month for warblers as many birds greatly reduce their singing or stop singing altogether as the breeding season starts to come to an end.  Nonetheless there are still birds to be found and as the month ends post breeding dispersal starts to ramp up.  Overall for the month I found a total of 23 species of warblers including those found on a trip out to Colorado.  Within just Hampshire County I found a total of 18 species of warbler.
