Today was really windy at the station area, but down below, just a few feet
lower where the nets are, it was calm and cool, and there were plenty of
birds. We again caught a good number of Wilson's Warbler (a mix of hatch
years and adults) and the Yellow-rumped Warblers started to show up in
numbers. A nice surprise was a hatch year Blackpoll Warbler, a species
rarely caught at this station. Here's the breakdown of today's 93 new
birds. (I'm trying to stay cool; these numbers are pretty extraordinary for
us!):

Downy Woodpecker 1
Western Wood-pewee 1
Hammond's Flycatcher 1
Dusky Flycatcher 2
Western Flycatcher 1
Cassin's Vireo 1
Red-breasted Nuthatch 2
Northern House Wren 2
Ruby-crowned Kinglet 1
Swainson's Thrush 1
Gray Catbird 5
Orange-crowned Warbler 9
Yellow-rumped Warbler 12
Blackpoll Warbler 1
Wilson's Warbler 46
Western Tanager 1
Chipping Sparrow 1
Clay-colored Sparrow 1
White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 2
Dark-eyed Junco, Oregon 1
Lazuli Bunting 1
