Records of Northern Wheatears in eastern North America are way up this year,

some have pointed to strong southerly winds up north which may have pushed
them 
down our way. 
 
 
I compiled all the records I could find to date in this map:

If you know of any missing records or errors please let me know and I'll
update 
this. CT still has both of their birds, so those in the east keep a watch
out.
