I was out bright and early to kick off 2024 with a bit of owling before I started concentrating on tracking down at least one warbler for the new year. I had a few options to choose from where warblers have been seen recently and I decided to try Mitch's Way as it has been the most consistent and has had overwintering Yellow rumped Warblers the last few years. I was happy to have a flyover within twenty minutes of arriving and then came across a group of at least three feeding in some dense tangles. With these Yellow rumped Warblers I extend my continuous streak of seeing at least one warbler species in Hampshire County to 81 months. I made a few other stops on my way to my next destination for possible warblers, which was the area around of Winsor Dam in Quabbin Park. I had hoped to find at least one Pine Warbler continuing but I came up empty for the day. I will be back again at some point during the next couple days and hopefully I will have better luck. then
