Hilton Pond 09/22/09 (Fall Warblers)

[Bill Hilton Jr. (RESEARCH)]

We don't know whether Roger Tory Peterson actually coined the phrase  
"confusing fall warblers," but the concept shouldn't really apply if  
you spend a little time learning field marks. To help, we've put  
together a collection of mug shots and profile images of 11 fall  
warblers we captured so far this month and posted it as the latest  
installment of "This Week at Hilton Pond." To view the photo essay for  
22-28 September 2009, go to http://www.hiltonpond.org/ThisWeek090922.html

After reading about fall warblers, please don't forget to scroll down  
for a list of all birds banded or recaptured during the third week of  
September, as well as nature notes about late-breeding American  
Goldfinches, the current status of Ruby-throated Hummingbird banding  
at Hilton Pond, and the sighting of a bird seldom seen at the Center.

Happy Nature Watching!
