Birding Boy Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Had some nice migrants the other day, the Blackpoll Warbler and Merlin were the earliest I've ever had them. Also not a five star, but my first decent photo of the blackpoll. https://ebird.org/checklist/S94106837 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birding Boy Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Small list, but a neat assortment of neotropical migrants for my tiny yard. https://ebird.org/checklist/S94612184 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birding Boy Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Had a really good morning, probably the best I've ever had in fall. Yellow-billed Cuckoo and Wilson's Snipe brought my total up to 138, and my county year list up to 200! (Which I ended the year with in 2020) https://ebird.org/checklist/S94689886 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, I see. I guess there is a lot of regional variation with morning flight, but FYI the checklist from today is highly above average. I've been having about 20 species for the past week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Cochrane Posted November 1, 2021 Author Share Posted November 1, 2021 Picked up what's almost certainly a Chestnut-sided Warbler on an NFC a few nights ago. Not putting it for certain on ebird, but still a cool find. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
