Yellow rumped Warbler 'myrtle', Arcadia, Easthampton, MA, Feb 11, 2022
The last couple days have featured above normal temperatures (into the 50's) and it has been fairly pleasant being outside. I went out in search of Yellow rumped Warblers on both Friday and Saturday. On Friday I followed up on the two groups of warblers I know have been around, starting off at Arcadia where I located two. I then went over to Mitch's Way and had two more. On Saturday I went looking for a single Yellow rumped Warbler Mary had off the rail trail in Amherst but was unable to relocate that bird. The overwintering birds have endured some snow and ice as well as some very cold temperatures but seem to be doing fine with quite a bit of food remaining for them so I see no reason why they will not be successful in surviving the entire winter.
