I had a late (early?) migrant blackpoll in my yard in North Perry this morning. It was singing quite a bit and appeared to be an adult male. It was present for about an hour and a half before moving on. Also of note were a couple hundred tree swallows flycatching overhead. I regularly get martins and rough-winged swallows with the occasional barn and tree swallow this time of the year. The large number of tree swallows today was unexpected.
