For example, this past weekend we had significantly higher numbers of BT-Green, Magnolia, Yellowthroat and Blackburnian than did Cape May (I will have to look at Mark Hoffman's Assateague numbers again) at Rock Creek, but they had the Tennessees, Palms, Parulas, Cape Mays and some others that have been thin on the ground in DC. They also seem to be enjoying good numbers of Tanagers and Orioles (we have not). None of us seems to be having much joy with Thrushes and Cuckoos.
