Warbler migration continues to ramp up but after a couple of nights of somewhat decent migration conditions the weather over the next few days into the weekend looks to feature strong north winds and cooler temps. I don't foresee a big influx of warblers until May 1st or so. Nonetheless some birds will make it into the area despite the less than ideal migration conditions and today certainly turned up some new ones for me as well as a noticeable influx of Yellow rumped Warblers. This morning alone I added three new warblers for the year in Hampshire County with my first Black throated Green Warbler, Northern Parula and Ovenbird. I'm now up to ten species in the county so far this year with lots more to come very soon.
I got a second species of warbler at the water feature for the year with the capture of a Pine Warbler.
