Subject: [MDBirding] Warblers at Wheaton Regional


Outstanding morning at Wheaton Regional. I was in the RPRT for a movement of over 100 warblers along the lake as the sun crept down the trees. Other spots were great as well. Eighteen species including Wilson's, Nashville, Tennessee, Blue-Winged, Bay-breasted, Cape May, and Blackburnian. Over twenty each of Chestnut-Sided, Magnolia and Black-Throated Green. All told I counted 162 warblers. Also, another birder had a Sedge Wren in the small meadow.
