I hope everyone got out today (Sunday, October 7) to enjoy the fallout
between rain showers. I did the morning shift at Governor Bridge
Natural Area. Highlights included 10 species of warblers including TWO
CONNECTICUT Warblers, 6 Snipes, Sapsucker, 30+ kinglets, a Scarlet
Tanager, 2 Rusty Blackbirds and 5 Purple Finches, including one adult
male.

Since the birds were still active when I left, I decided to try the
early afternoon shift at Milltown Landing. Except for the lack of
Kingbirds, I was not disappointed. There I found 12 species of warbler
bringing the day's total to 14. An Ovenbird and a Chat were the least
expected. The six species of sparrows were highlighted by 3 early
White-crowneds and a late Grasshopper.
