Orange-crowned Warblers on the Schoodic - and lots of migration!

[Merle and Anne Archie]

We had excellent looks at two Orange-crowned Warblers at the terminus of the Blueberry Trail where it joins with the Schoodic Head trail.  Along the Blueberry Trail we saw many flocks of Pine Siskins and a hunting Sharp-shinned Hawk that flew low along the trail under the alder canopy.   Lots of kinglets (both Golden-crowned and Ruby-crowned),  Hermit Thrushes and still many Yellow-rumped Warblers.

 

We also saw two White-crowned Sparrows - one at Frazier Point and another at the Blueberry Trail trailhead. 

 

Today along highways, local roads and even the road into our house we saw hundreds and hundreds of sparrows (White-throated, Song and juncos....).
