The Mascoma Chapter held a field trip at Union Village Dam on Sunday, though due to confusion the leader(moi) waited for fellow birders at one end of the park, and the rest of the group met at the *other* end. This unfortunate error had one side effect - pretty good coverage of the park, since we only met after the trip ended. So, a combined trip list yielded 16 species of warblers and 64 species overall, further proof of the wonderful migration that we've had the past week. Highlights: Warblers! Northern Parula, Yellow(many), Chestnut-sided, Magnolia, Black-throated Blue, Yellow-rumped, Black-throated Green, Blackburnian, Pine, Bay-breasted(2), Black and White, American Redstart, Ovenbird, Common Yellowthroat, Wilson's, and Canada. 3 types of vireos: Blue-headed, Red-eyed and Warbling. 3 types of thrushes: Hermit, Wood, and Veery 3 types of sandpipers: Spotted and Solitary Sandpiper, Wilson's Snipe 4 types of flycatchers: E.Kingbird, E. Phoebe, L. Flycatcher, Alder Flycatcher 6 types of sparrows: Song, Swamp, Field(2), White-throated, Chipping, and 4 White-crowned Sparrows Plus the usual assortment of brightly colored birds: Scarlet Tanager, Baltimore Oriole, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Brown Thrasher, and a Barred Owl.
