The first week of September has now come to an end and there have been a few good mornings for warblers as well as a few that were lackluster.  My best morning so far was the 4th when I had 16 species.  We are now in the peak of fall warbler migration and the next few weeks will bring lots of stuff and with any luck a few Connecticut Warblers.  So far for September I have had 20 species of warblers and have oddly missed a few that I should have had by now including Nashville Warbler, Cape May Warbler, Yellow Warbler and Wilson's Warbler (I had all of those species in August and I know I will eventually get them all before the new month ends).  Sadly I reaggravated my most recent back injury on Thursday so no climbing up any hills but that should not make as much of a difference in the fall as it did in the spring.
