Yellow then Orange

AHY Northern Waterthrush

Although we started a little later this morning, due to lingering rain clouds, we managed to catch quite a few birds this morning. Yellow-rumped warblers are still working their way south, and we are seeing quite an increase in Orange-crowned warblers moving through the area this week. First wave was Yellow; now for the Orange wave! We have also seen a bit of a decrease in Hammond's flycatchers vocalizing in the woods around the banding station. Fall is definitely here!
