Field Notes

Notes:

Slightly fuzzy photos but these little guys are quite uncommon round here & these were the only shots I managed to get & it was from a fair distance. I'm still not great at ID'ing warblers but this has been verified by my contact at the Nashville ornithological society

Yes fall migration is bringing all kinds of new birds through every day! It's lovely to see although apart from the few I've managed to get photos of all I can say I see is a lot of small yellow birds! Hopefully I will get better at spotting, identifying & photographing them with a bit more practice! And I know what you mean about the skippers - I'm having the same trouble with orb-weavers!
The warblers are a challenge for me...kinda like the Skipper butterflies. That's a good number for you yard!
Thanks ceherzog & alice! I'm pretty excited as this is the 46th different species of bird I've identified in our yard since I started counting in May this year!
