Just back from a trip down to the Melbourne area of Florida arriving down there on March 17 and leaving the the 22nd.  Unfortunately I sick for a large portion of the the trip but still got out as much as I could.  Although a little early to produce a big variety of warblers heading north a few locations did produce some groups of migrants moving through with decent numbers of Northern Parula and Black and White Warblers. It was nice to hear some of the warblers starting to sing.  Eleven species of warbler were seen (with nine photographed) including Ovenbird, Northern Waterthush, Black and White Warbler, Orange crowned Warbler, Common Yellowthroat, Northern Parula, Palm Warbler, Pine Warbler, Yellow rumped Warbler, Yellow throated Warbler and Prairie Warbler.
