We spent the morning along Mingo Creek Rd (White Cnty). It has been a hopping place for warblers, vireos and flycatchers over the last 2 weeks with BLACKPOLLs being the attention getter for many birders...at least until today when numerous Wilson's Warblers were in the Willows.
This past weekend, several folks got their BLACKPOLL life/state or county bird. An awesome experience.
The Willows are along both sides of the road, which is somewhat untravelled (but dusty). The warblers, vireos and flycatchers have been dripping off the tree limbs...and many at eye level. Flycatchers, including both Willow and Alder, were vocalizing, which made ID a snap.
While nothing super unusual, several folks were seeing Blackburnians too. What a wonderful treat!!
Here's info on this hotspot with directions. https://birdinghotspots.org/hotspot/L30709342 Patty McLean and Michael Linz The Roadrunners
