A couple of weeks ago we devoted a "This Week at Hilton Pond" photo
essay to making some "confusing fall warblers" less so. After lots of
kind comments from Web site visitors, we decided to cover a few more
species that migrated through during the first half of October. To
view our latest series on migrant parulids, please check out the 1-15
October 2009 installment at
http://www.hiltonpond.org/ThisWeek091001.htmlAfter puzzling over the warblers, don't forget to scroll down for our
usual list of birds banded or recaptured during the period, as well as
a couple of miscellaneous nature notes. We also reveal the winner of
our "Chubby Hummingbird Naming Contest."
Happy Nature Watching!
