Manomet

Four days in and we're up to 25 species! Lots of catbirds and Carolina Wrens, but otherwise a great mix, with ten species of warbler so far.

Northern Waterthrush from this morning.


My lifer Hooded Warbler.  The photo's a bit bright, but this was a stunning bird.  Big too!


My first Prairie Warbler in hand...wait, no, they were the first birds I ever worked with, back in 2009 in Montague!


Our only Brown Thrasher so far, which made all sorts of wonderful sounds in hand.

PEFA

80 songbirds in 3ish hours this morning.
Two N.A. year firsts for me:
Blackpoll Warbler


Northern Waterthrush


My first PEFA sighting and handling of the fall, possibly the last, caught by Chris late in the day.
