Tipu trees, as many people know, can be quite attractive to a variety of insectivores, including quite a few vagrant species, typically during the months of October to January or February. Rarely are they attractive in spring. This year, however, appears to be an exception, and there are quite a few (though not all) tipu clumps around the county supporting a fair number of migrants and a few vagrants over the past week or two. The rarities include several Tennessee Warblers in just the past few days, plus at least one Parula. The dominant regular migrants frequenting tipus lately have been Warbling Vireo and Yellow and Wilson's Warblers. Certainly it is worth regularly checking your favorite patches over the next couple weeks while there is still migration and we're in the midst of vagrant season.
