CAPTAIN SAMS
It was a slower morning with only 10 new birds and 4 recaptures of 7 species. There were a couple flocks of Yellow-rumped Warblers, but otherwise, a very quiet morning. The Yellow-rumped Warblers have not shown up in large numbers yet, but we had a small cold front move through the area today so we could get another push of them tomorrow morning.
