The warbler show continues. This morning from about 7-8, we compiled the following highlights in the trees around our house. By far the best was a male Cape May Warbler that allowed great views for a minute or two. It was also nice to see some summer birds still at the feeders. By 8 am, the warblers appeared to have left the yard for more typically habitats.
