Today featured a good push of warblers with the best overnight migration conditions yet for September.  There was a notable increase in a number of species and I added two more species for the month for me (Cape May Warblers and Nashville Warbler).  I have now seen 24 species for September and I'm only missing a Wilson's Warbler as an expected species (after seeing a couple of very early ones in August).  With the rapid approach of mid September the focus know becomes tracking down a Connecticut Warbler for the year (hopefully more than one).
