This past weekend at Green Cay, I noticed for the first time some migrants in the tree canopy around the chickee hut - it's been real quiet over there on previous weeks, with essentially nothing in the trees. Saturday, there were probably half-a-dozen yellow-throated warblers, some blue-grey gnatcatchers, several American redstarts, one of what appeared to be a northern parula, and dozens of barn swallows (40-50 at least.
There was one swallow mixed in with the barn swallows that I couldn't tell if it was a juvie - the colors didn't look like the others, and made me think more of a bank swallow...seemed too grey for a tree swallow - I don't know swallows very well other than tree and barn, which are the two I see the most of...I got a fleeting shot of it buzzing around in the sky, so maybe someone can give me a quick ID...
