Wednesday May 5: As of 9:30 this morning, the guides from Tropical Birding
had already found 22 species of warblers at the boardwalk at Magee Marsh
Wildlife Area, and said they expected a warbler species total in the high
20s for the day.  I was leading a birdwalk on private property farther east
in Ottawa County first thing this morning, and although we weren't in prime
warbler territory, there were a lot of migrants around including Orchard and
Baltimore orioles, Eastern Kingbirds, Northern Waterthrushes, Tennessee
Warblers, and scads of Yellow Warblers.  (Also, Solitary Sandpipers have
been everywhere the last couple of days -- I've never seen so many on
migration before.)   So this looks like a significant day for migrants, if
you can get to good habitat before the rain showers move in this afternoon
(predicted for around 3:30 - 4 p.m.).
