--=====================_161125781==.ALT Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed 03 October 2009 Gerd Rotzell and I birded the "Shag End" peninsula of Shad Bay for several hours this morning. There were quite a few migrants in evidence -- many flocks of Eastern "Yellow" Palm Warblers, 25+ birds in total, and a six-pack of Blackpoll Warblers. We also had six Hermit Thrushes, and an equal number of robins. Lots of Blue Jays were moving through in small-to-medium sized flocks, and there was a late migrant immature Osprey. 30+ Boreal Chickadees outnumbered the Black-cappeds by 5-1, and we also enjoyed a visit by a family of Gray Jays. Add in a Ruffed Grouse, and it was a fine morning indeed.
