Misty warblers

A misty damp day isn't a good day to birdwatch and despite tough light conditions,the morning did produced a few good warblers today.

Paige Linden heard and found a high canopy bird in the Ravine western edge at Lower/Upper Pool , likely above the Rocky Pass path. With color washed out that high up, for me its a tough bird to observe. Perhaps tomorrow it will come down to earth to its usual preference somewhere.

Speaking of high birds that a BLACKBURNIAN WARBLER is its usual norm, Joshua found one at the Peninsula tip.

A last decent warbler, a PRAIRIE WARBLER traveled through the trees behind the Well Drive picnic tables, according to Rob Bate.
