[Watching warblers at Cape May Point State Park yesterday. We're under the cedars just a little way down the right fork, and it's the cooperative first fall female Canada Warbler that's making us (front to back, Tony, Cameron and me) smile.

The walk finished with 9 Common Nighthawks in the air, according to Karl Lukens. The walk added Bay-breasted and Blackburnian Warblers to the list (see below); Doug Gochfeld had seen the Blackburnian earlier in the day.
In the pre-dawn hour the long, level sseeeet flight note of a White-throated Sparrow came in through the window, my first of the fall. The bird appeared under my feeder as the sun rose. Welcome back!
