Birding by ear may be the trend for this weekend with vegetation in full
summer finery. Weather patterns appear favorable for movement the next few
days and the timing for the Third Wave is upon us. BSBO's Navarre banding
station has been witnessing the slow shift to the final wave the past couple
of days. Magnolia Warbler has gone from males to females with the past
couple of days of southerly wind. 15 - 25 species of warbler are still being
recorded daily. Red-eyed Vireos, Gray-cheeked Thrush, American Redstart,
Canada, Wilson, and Mourning Warblers have all increased. With predicted
weather, the Empid flycatchers should come in force this weekend signaling
the final major push of migrants. Now is the time for cuckoos, Cedar
Waxwings, and if you are still haunted by the Connecticut then make some
time to check out your favorite local habitat or make another sojourn to the
Lake Erie marshes. The birds aren't done yet, birders shouldn't be either.
