With the month of November rapidly coming to a close I will look at the record setting total of eight species I had for the month in Hampshire County.  I believe my previous best November had a total of five species so this year November was really impressive.  The warblers I had included Tennessee Warbler, Common Yellowthroat, Magnolia Warbler, Blackpoll Warbler, Palm Warbler, Pine Warbler, Yellow rumped Warbler and Wilson's Warbler.  A few of these are new record late dates for me including Magnolia Warbler (previous late date 10/26 back in 2014) and Wilson's Warbler (previous late date 10/11 in 2007).  I managed to get at least record shots of all of these warblers.  In addition there were at least three other species of warbler reported late in the month that I failed to catch up with despite trying.
