September has now come to an end and with it the peak of fall warbler migration. There will certainly still be warblers to be found but the big diversity is behind us (until next spring anyway!). Overall for the month I found a total of 27 species in Hampshire County with the highlights being a Worm eating Warbler early in the month (an unusual species in fall here), a total of seven (maybe eight) Connecticut Warblers and decent numbers of a few species including Northern Parula, American Redstart, Tennessee Warbler and Cape May Warblers. The numbers of Bay breasted Warblers were much lower than expected given the huge numbers moving through this spring..it will be interesting to see if they just used a different migration route in the fall and the spring numbers next year will be above average once again.

The water feature at the house has been quiet for most of the fall migration so far but I did have a Blackpoll Warbler make a stop at the end of the month.
