The first week of September has been fairly productive for warblers even without any rare ones showing up.  With work commitments and looking for unusual shorebirds in the area the first few days of the month I have not had a lot of time to track down warblers but finally got out a bit the last few mornings with the main focus being warblers with my total standing at 23 species for the month so far.  On Monday I spent about three hours at Quabbin Park where I had 18 species of warbler.  To end out the first week I went to Arcadia this morning in the hopes of finding an early Connecticut Warbler but had no luck in that quest.  Among the several species of warbler this morning were my first Palm Warblers of the season.
