Today was pretty much the opposite of yesterday in my North Perry yard.  At
sun-up there were all kinds of birds singing.  I heard a lot of warblers and
others.  At a little after 8:00 they all got up and flew east.  After that
pretty much silence.  I had two Gambell's white-crowned sparrows early, but
they too departed around 8:00.  There were a lot of the typical race around
all day, but no more Gambell's.  Only about 10 warbler species today and all
were seen early.  The only one of note was a hooded.

If anything there were more indigo buntings around.  I had at least 16 of
them.  There were still good numbers of orioles at the feeders, just nothing
like yesterday.  I am estimating 8 orchard orioles and at least 30-40
Baltimore orioles.  There was a lot of plumage variation.  I had to refill
my feeders three times.  Also around were at least 5 red-breasted nuthatches
and only about 30 pine siskins.
