Hey folks,
I visited Mink Brook twice today, once late morning (it was very birdy then) and then late this afternoon/evening. Had 16 species of warbler, with highlights being a couple Wilson's Warblers, a Canada Warbler, and several Magnolia and Blackburnian Warblers. Other really nice birds were Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Indigo Bunting, and my FOS Scarlet Tanager. There was a lone Solitary Sandpiper on the exposed flats this evening. Below are the notable birds from today, with totals reflective of both times I went out.
