There were 10 warbler species this morning at Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park. At the southern end, in addition to the usual Common Yellowthroats, Yellow-rumped and Palm Warblers; Magnolia, Orange-crowned, Yellow-breasted Chat (doing its short "bueau" call) and Blackpoll heard, but not relocated due to joggers. Further up the trail: Adult male American Redstart, Prairie and adult female Black-throated Green Warbler.

Also of interest: A flock of 16 American Goldfinches flew out of a Strangler Fig, Blue-headed Vireo, Great Crested Flycatcher and frigatebird. Yesterday late afternoon, ~8-10 Cave Swallows were feeding over the interior. At least 1 had a dark throat.

Since this is already December, it will be interesting to see if the warblers stay through winter.
