Eastern Bluebirds

Eric Mills reports.....
This morning a group of three E. Bluebirds ( a male and two females) arrived on the island.
When I left, they were half-heartedly gathering around a Tree Swallow box at the picnic ground on the Lighthouse Road.

Also today, a Wood Pewee and an Ovenbird. Despite a lot of hummingbird feeders on the
island there were no hummers to be seen until this morning, when a male buzzed the
windows of our cabin.

A slight but noticeable increase in the number of singing Blackpoll Warblers on the island today.

Migration continues, although it is hard to discern in the background of singing birds on territory.
