Hi again,
a second look through the trees behind our apartment building produced a
few additional warblers, like a singing Wilson's, several
Black-and-whites, Blackpolls (both males and females), and Cedar Waxwings.
I have rarely experienced such an intense warbler activity throughout the
entire day.
