I have spent the last few morning mainly out looking for warblers and have had some luck as summer rapidly comes to an end and the fall season approaches (although with temps near 90 the last couple days summer does not seem to be waning too much).  Nothing too unusual but some great looks at a variety of species with a notable increase in Magnolia Warblers today.  The weather today was really good for tracking down warblers with clear blue skies and light winds early on.  Mixed flocks are becoming the norm now as many species get ready for migration or are already on their way south.
