I found a moribund BLACK-THROATED GRAY WARBLER early this morning on a small offshore island near Bon Portage Island.  It had apparently struck the guy wires of a radio tower.  Also found several dead Blackpoll Warblers and a Red-eyed Vireo.  Put the warbler in a box, hoping it might recover, but it was dead within an hour.  Appears to be a hatch-year male.  Amazingly small, not much bigger than a Golden-crowned Kinglet!
