I have noticed that this week as everyone knows in South Florida we have been having many new migrants birds arriving and flying through our area.
Warblers is where it seems that most people concentrate their attention so there is where my focus goes today.
I saw around my neighborhood in Boynton around oak and pine trees the following 12 warblers this past weekend:
American Redstart (m&f)
Prairie Warbler (one lonely soul)
Palm Warbler ( a few)
Black-throated Blue Warbler (m&f) (a few)
Northern Parula (one)
Yellow-throated warbler (several)
Black-and-white (several) m&f
Worm-eating Warbler (one)
Ovenbird (several)
Common Yellowthroat (f adult) and had never observed how tame and how stuck to one tree feeding for more than 10 minutes!
Pine Warbler
The pièce-de-résistance for me was a gorgeous adult male BLACK-THROATED GREEN Warbler with its breeding colors still on right at my doorstep!
Sorry but had NO Canada, Blackburnians, Nashville, Tennessee, Blue-winged, Cerulean and the like that are much more rare.
Saw some other species but nothing worth losing sleep over:).
May this upcoming week be even better than this past one,
Marcello Gomes
