Hi John and all:
It is hard to say. Some of the warblers seen could have been migrants mov=
ed in from elsewhere in the province, and what we saw were usually in mixed=
groups, but there were few. This suggests that the warblers that move int=
o those areas have not arrived yet or those that were there have moved out =
altogether. It will be interesting to compare to what is being seen in the=
southwest of the province by other birders and on Brier Island. If number=
s of migrants are not being seen there, then likely the warblers will just =
have displaced to other areas in between.
Sincerely,
James

Hi James and all,
It is interesting to hear about the changes you noticed during the past wee=
k. Do you think these birds have dispersed to other places in the province =
or that they have left the province to go south for the winter? Normally th=
e early migrants that I hear in my recordings in August are largely America=
n Redstarts and Yellow Warblers. But those I heard this week were a wide va=
riety of warbler species. As for flycatchers and vireos, these are one of t=
he few groups of birds that don't call at night when they are migrating so =
they are always a big question mark for me.
Cheers,
John

Hi John and all:
Based on my field trip this weekend past, I would say that warblers have de=
finitely started migration earlier than normal. I only had seven species. =
I know that many more species were present over the summer on territory in=
the places that we visited and they were absent on July 23. Also represen=
tative numbers of the seven species of warblers that we did get were low. =
We had mostly juveniles with adults and most of the juveniles still with wh=
at I call peach fuzz. Very noticeably missing were common yellowthroat, Ma=
gnolia warbler, blackburnian, and Canada warbler. We also only found one y=
ellow warbler. I always get blue-headed vireoand they were gone as were ea=
stern wood pewees and least flycatchers. Alder flycatcher numbers were als=
o down and this species is usually found the whole way along the route that=
I follow. So I think that it is more than just the warblers that are on t=
he move early.

Hi All,
Warblers have begun moving at night. These are likely landscape changes rat=
her than south-bound migration at this early date. Last night at Carleton, =
Yarmouth County, I recorded 14 warbler calls; 4 Ovenbird, 3 Northern Parula=
, 3 Magnolia Warbler, 1 Chestnut-sided Warbler, 1 Black-and-white Warbler, =
1 Nashville Warbler, and 1 Blackburnian Warbler.
John
