Cromwell, migrants, 9/26/16

[Tim Houghton]

Nearly everything I found today was on the Box trail between the 2 bridges--and along the creek, too. The 2nd half of my walk--largely higher up--practically nothing. I think my favorites today were blue-headed vireo, Connecticut, and purple finch (a brownie). 12 warbler species. 50 species over 4 hours.

Some of the birds:

Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker (1)

Blue-Headed Vireo (2, gorgeous)

Philadelphia Vireo (1)

Red-Breasted Nuthatch (1)

Ruby-Crowned Kinglet (5)

Northern Waterthrush (1)

Nashville Warbler (2)

Connecticut Warbler (1)

Purple Finch (1, brownie)
