Fall migration under way

Managed to get on the patch Saturday morning and Sunday. Good numbers of warblers around at least on Sunday although diversity could have been somewhat better. Still added a good number of patch birds:

1) Veery
2) Magnolia Warbler
3) Tennessee Warbler
4) Red-breasted Nuthatch
5) Common Nighthawk


Blue Mash was pretty quiet with the exception of 5 Blue-winged Teal and a disturbingly mutilated Canada Goose - not a pretty sight at all.

Total year tally for MNC stands at 115. I hope I will get to the patch one more time before my wedding. Then I will report from the Connecticut coast which should hold some nice birds at this time of year. Can't wait.. oh yes and I will get married, too.
