The water feature continues to catch warbler species and in just a couple days I captured four species (Black and White Warbler, Yellow Warbler, Common Yellowthroat and Chestnut sided Warbler).  Although none were new for the year I was surprised to see such diversity for early August...hopefully this bodes well for the upcoming fall migration.

I have also been out looking for warblers over the last several days and have seen a fair number.  Not a lot of song left but occasionally some will sing.
