This morning I woke to find at least 20 Cape May Warblers in the courtyard
outside of my dorm (despite the courtyard hosting only six bushes and fewer
trees). Upon further inspection, there were also Tennessee Warblers,
Chipping Sparrows, American Robins, White-Breasted Nuthatches,Cedar
Waxwings, Carolina Chickadees, Tufted Titmice, Eastern Phoebes, Turkey
Vultures, Black Vultures, American Goldfinch, and an unidentified Empid.
This is only exciting because the courtyard outside of my dorm is generally
only home to a robin or so and a couple of vultures. Could the deluge of
warblers and other migrants be the result of a minor fall-out? I am not
used to seeing migration like this on campus.
