Thank you, Spencer, for providing such a thorough record of warblers, especially fall warblers.
When I see those confusing little guys flitting about in the trees, I recall the story told by an ornithologist who was working with the native peoples of the Alaskan arctic. When asked what their name for the female longspur, boogoostubiagach , meant, he was told "some damn little brown bird".

Subject: [UVB] More Warblers (14 sp)
Given the clear skies and sun this morning, I did not know what to
expect for warblers, but again I was not disappointed.
I spent more time in the woods today, which may have accounted for some
of the different warblers.
Highlights today included a molting male Tennessee, a Canada and a Wilson's.
The new additions bring our total for the week to 17 species! The list
below shows high counts for the week (4 days: Tues, Wed, Fri, and today)
Can't wait to see what is here tomorrow morning,
Spencer Hardy
