Migration + West Winds = Birds in Cape Florida

The FOS big push from Cuba (noted by Noel Wamer on FloridaBirds-L) combined with the front and dropped in nice numbers of birds. I only did part of the trail from 4:30-5:30 PM so my numbers are conservative.

Birds of interest: Broad-winged Hawk; Wilson's Snipe; Blue-headed Vireo; Northern Parula (83); Palm Warbler (140+); Black-and-white Warbler (8); and Common Yellowthroat (133). A vireo zipped by with no yellow, so possible Red-eyed? Perhaps the NNE winds tonight will keep the birds here 1 more day.
