I birded the yard this morning and immediately got on a loose group of warblers. Not a whole lot of diversity, but I had quite a few Blackpoll Warblers. Also had a small flock of Purple Martins come and check out the Purple Martin house. Maybe with the NNE wind this morning some of the birds decided to wait it out & grab a bite to eat. Anyway, it looks like the Blackpolls decided to migrate.
