 Hi Folks,

After missing most of migration, I got lucky yesterday.  While
chatting with someone, our director Ken came in the room to report
bird activity outside his window.  We grabbed bins and went, but by
the time we got out, the flock had moved.  I decided to walk around a
bit, and stumbled upon the same or a different flock.  I found:

Blue-winged Warbler - 1
Blackburnian Warbler - 1 or 2
Chestnut-sided Warbler - 2 or 3
Common Yellowthroat - 4
Bay-breasted Warbler - 1
Yellow-throated Warbler - 1 (isn't that late?
Tennessee Warbler 3 or 4
Black-throated Blue Warbler 1


Scarlett Tanager - 3 or 4
Rose-breated Grosbeak 1 (after hearing so many the previous days)
Gray Catbird - at least 6 or 7

Blue-headed Vireo - 1

Thrushes - 8 or 10.  All I could ID were 2 Swainson's and one Wood.
