Migrant push all across the state yesterday?

After work yesterday (9/15), I saw a mixed warbler
flock come thru my yard:
2 Townsend's Warbler
3 Golden-crowned Kinglet
1 Orange-crowned Warbler
1 Hutton's Vireo
1 Red-eyed Vireo (new yard bird!)

Plus all the usual Black-capped and Chestnut-backed
Chickadees, RB Nuthatch, Spotted Towhees, WC Sparrow,
Stellar's Jays, Anna's Hummingbird, etc. The whole
yard appeared to be crawling with birds, for about 30
minutes. Then they were all gone ;(

Great time of year to be watching for those migrating
flocks thru the yard!!
