Wilson's Warbler
My original plan for today was to bird alone at Oak Openings, maybe catch some banding or a guided nature walk at Kitty Todd. Instead, I had the opportunity to visit Magee Marsh with some of OOS's top birders including Bill Thompson III, Jim McCormac, Cheryl Harner, Jen Sauter, and Peter King, among others. (It pays to know people!)
The above birds are two of the 17 species of warblers I saw, out of a total of 72 species. (The group had about 120, including 24 or 25 warblers, but I missed a few.)
Gotta run - the buffet dinner is starting!
