Yes, it seems very quiet on my hillside in Strafford as well. In addition to Ovenbirds, Yellow-rumpeds and Black-and-whites, I have seen a couple of Black-throated Blues and Nashvilles, heard a couple of Black-throated Greens. But no Chestnut-sideds or Yellowthroats, usually pretty abundant by now. Two singing Wood Thrushes this morning for the first time this season.

Here in the woods at 1,400¹ near Downer Forest in Sharon/South Strafford,
the Blue-headed vireo has been around for at least 2 weeks, but no
Red-eyeds. The Yellow-rumped warblers also maybe 2 weeks, several, as is
usual. And just this week, Ovenbirds galore. Highlight thus far is a
solitary Lincoln¹s sparrow. But overall it¹s very quiet for
early-to-mid-May. Very, especially with regard to the warblers by now
usually I¹ve seen several species. But except for the two above and an
occasionally audible Black & White, nada, niente, nothing. A bit weird.
