I had a really good month for warblers with a total of 16 species including several latest ever dates for a number of species (a future post will cover early and late dates for the county in excruciating detail but that will have to wait until later).  The month was cooler than typical, especially the middle and end but the warblers still persisted.  November will feature just a few species but holds the possibility for a rarity to show up.

The camera at the water feature captured a few warblers for the month.
