I surveyed the Hike-Bike Trail this morning at Huntley Meadows. A few migrants
were passing through, but I was more impressed with the number of Ovenbirds
that have arrived. I counted 31. In contrast, I could only find 1 Acadian
Flycatcher. Chats are once again occupying the main meadow. The totals below:
