[Maine-birds] Warbler Waves--Rockport and Camden

Walked Beech Hill Preserve in Rockport this morning before and during a rainstorm. 13 warbler species, including FOY Yellow and Magnolia Ws, C. Yellowthroat, and Am. Redstart. Yellow-rumps, N. Parula, Black-and-white W., and Ovenbirds most common, as well as White-throated Sparrows moving through and resident E. Towhees everywhere. 

Later this morning, after the rain stopped, I stood in my backyard in Camden for a couple of hours as a wave of warblers moved through. 10 warbler species, including FOY Chestnut-sided. Primarily Yellow-rumped, but also heavy on N. Parula, Black-and-white W., and BT Greens. 100+ warblers total. Other birds included a Great Blue Heron drop in (we live on the Megunticook River), Red-bellied Woodpecker, and FOY catbird.

Blackburnian and BT Blue Ws in both locations, as well; always fun to see.
