This is along the Delaware River. Anyway, 4 hours of birding yielded one of my best days there for certain species, but not outright numbers. I attribute that to the good probability that this stuff came in Sat. night - Sun. morning. Stuff lingers here as it has no place to go basically. Anyway, numbers: 1 RUBY-THROATED HUMMINGBIRD 2 EASTERN WOOD-PEWEES 3 EASTERN PHOEBES 10 BLUE JAYS 3 HOUSE WRENS 1 BLUE-HEADED VIREO 2 WARBLING VIREOS - 1 singing. Strange. 1 RED-EYED VIREO 6 PARULAS 1 YELLOW WARBLER 2 MAGNOLIA WARBLERS 1 BLACK-THROATED BLUE 3 PALM WARBLERS 2 BLACK and WHITE WARBLERS 3 AMERICAN REDSTARTS 4 CONNECTICUT WARBLERS - wow. 17 COMMON YELLOWTHROATS 6 INDIGO BUNTINGS 20 or so FIELD SPARROWS 1 VESPER SPARROW 5 SAVANNAH SPARROWS 2 LINCOLN'S SPARROWS 5 SWAMP SPARROWS 1 BALTIMORE ORIOLE 50 or so AMERICAN GOLDFINCHES I spent the whole morning at the National Park dredge spoils in Gloucester County.
