We managed to get in a short getaway to Florida from March 25th-31st with gorgeous weather but sadly not tons of warblers. Nonetheless I didn't expect to get away at all this winter season due to the ongoing Covid 19 pandemic but after we both got vaccinated and some travel restrictions were relaxed (at least for travel in the US) we got a trip in. It was a short trip that had us flying into West Palm Beach were we spent one night and then up to Melbourne Beach for four nights and then Orlando for a night. Overall the warblers were quite sparse. It appears that many of the wintering species (especially Yellow rumped Warblers and Palm Warblers) already headed north and incoming migrants had not really arrived yet. The most numerous species among the 10 species of warbler seen in total turned out to be Northern Parula.
An ongoing story of my search to see all the new world warbler species as well as general sightings of warblers locally
