A Sunday morning walk to Cherry Pond from the trailhead at 289 Airport Rd in Whitefield was productive for warblers. The weather was overcast with low clouds and occasional light sprinkles of rain. The highlights of the 19 species were Cape May, Bay-breasted, Mourning, and Wilson’s warblers. The mourning and Wilson’s warblers were in a ten year old clearcut about a thousand feet in from the gate. Chestnut-sided and common yellowthroat warblers were abundant here. The Cape May and Bay-breasted warblers were in balsam fir and spruce trees. The black flies are out so long sleeves and pants are advised.
