Wood Duck - 2 seen by others at the Ice Pond, 1 later seen flying over the Trailing Yew
Greater Yellowlegs - 2 at Swim Beach this morning
Nice raptor movement, including many Merlins, at least 6 Osprey, and several Sharpies and Peregrines (including one big presumed female perched across from the Yew preening for a very long time)
Red-headed Woodpecker - 1 continuing juv. bird
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker - 1 fly by, first of trip
Ruby-throated Hummingbird - several still linger
Warbler numbers low, mostly Yellow-rumps and Blackpolls, it seems; I'm up to 14 for this trip (though at least 5 other species have been reported on past week), including Tennessee, Cape May, Prairie, Wilson's, Nashville, etc.
Lark Sparrow - at least 1 continuing bird, across from Tribler CottageClay-colored Sparrow - 1 very obliging, strongly marked bird in the pumpkin patch on the Meadow
Bobolink - 1 + in the Meadow
Baltimore Oriole - high count of 8
Also reported:
Yellow-breasted Chat - 1 still being seen intermittently on the way to Lobster Cove
Philly and Warbling Vireos (still being seen though I saw neither today)
Pine Siskin - 1+ near Lobster Cove (Don Reimer et al)
Blackburnian Warbler - 1 (Steve and Jane Mirick, on Horn Hill, if I'm remembering right)
Heard flight calls tonight while up at the lighthouse, hope more new birds drop in tomorrow morning...
