As usual in mid-May, the warblers have been heard in my neighborhood as they migrate north. Typically, about 8-10 species of warblers heard along my road by me, neighbors who are proficient birders, and/or by Merlin.
This morning in a short 15 minute walk down my driveway with my dog before the rain, I heard 16 species on Merlin plus saw a FOY Ruby-throated Hummingbird sipping at the remains of my Rhododendron bushes.
FOY sounds of annual visitors the Veery, Great Crested Flycatcher, and Common Yellowthroat this morning. The Black-and-white warbler and Red-eyed Vireo are an annual visitors and have been around for a few days. The American Redstart has appeared only in recent years, but arrived weeks ago. The Ovenbird has been sounding off for a week. The Eastern Phoebe arrived more than 10 days ago and has a visible nest near the house. While I cannot confirm Magnolia Warbler, it was noted on Merlin and has been heard in some past years.
Yesterday, Merlin heard the Chestnut-sided Warbler. I saw and heard the Carolina Wren, Chipping Sparrow, White-throated Sparrow, and Scarlet Tanager.
While I see fewer birds since I had to take down my feeders, it is still a great month to go birding near my home in Hinesburg. Best, Kay
