I spent most of the morning in the apple orchard of the Milton Frye Nature
Area in Norwich.  It started slowly.  For the first hour except for
Yellow-rumps and BC Chickadees all I found were:  Canada, Redstart,
Bay-breasted, Cape May, Tennessee, Black and White, and Blackburnian
Warblers.  There were probably more but I only looked in three trees.  

 

Later there seemed to be a hundred Yellow-rumps (likely an exaggeration).
For a while I couldn't find a warbler for all the yellow-rumps.

 

This sure has been a great migration.  Get out now if you can before they
all leave.
