Hi,

After supper today I was sitting on the deck at home and heard a Blackpoll
Warbler. After a little searching, there was a pair flitting about in dense
leaved out trees at the edge of our property. The F. was very dull, and I
would have had a really hard time with the ID if it had been a lone, silent
bird. Interestingly, both sexes were singing, with the M. being louder than
the F. I don't think this is their usual breeding habitat, so I suspect they
are just migrating "H" for the atlas. It's a fairly rare species for the
Valley, and new for our yard.

Aftr that, we went down a dirt road that leads to a pond, round the corner
off Church St., and there - singing prominently, and occasionally visible,
was a Warbling Vireo - presumably the same one that we had about 3 weeks
ago.

Richard
