He tallied: Warblers: Cape May (2), Palm (yellow) (3), Black-and-White (1), Common Yellowthroat (1), Black-throated Green (1), Myrtle (ca. 100!). Sparrows: White-throated (ca. 200!), Chipping (ca. 100!), Field (3), Swamp (8), Junco (3). Others: Blue-headed Viro (2), Ruby-crowned Kinglet (ca. 25), Eastern Phoebe (10), Winter Wren (1), Purple Finch (1), Yellow-breasted Sapsucker (1). Good time for Orange-crowned Warbler but no luck so far...
