Hi Peter,
As you probably know, today was an extreme birdpalooza. We ended up with 89 species (I may have missed some, so hopefully others on the email can add a few more...
In addition to the birds we had a very rare Paul Keim sighting...!
Highlights were many, including a low Cerulean (thanks to Martha for running up to get us), many Blackburnian, a late Prothonotary, the Kentucky (mostly heard but popped up for some of us a couple of times), Bay-breasted, Hooded, Tennessee (several singing around); a total of 27 warbler species.
Here's the list. Hopefully they will all hang in there for the Birdathon.
Best regards,
Tom
