Earlier this week we saw a Townsend's Warbler at Grayland Beach SP and several Orange-crowned at Bottle Beach.

On Wednesday I had two orange-crowned warblers, an Audubon’s yellow-rumped and a Wilson’s in the morning eating worms in my plum tree. Haven’t seen them since.

BirdCast was pretty accurate last night, at least here in Port Townsend. There was a big movement of Yellow-rumped Warblers -- mostly Audubon. I counted 51 moving from tree to tree out near the lighthouse. We've been swimming in Orange-crowns for a week or more. Western Flycatchers arrived en force a couple days ago. No other flycatchers that I've seen yet. There's been a scattering of Wilson's, Black-thr Gray, and I've seen a couple of each of these: MacGillivray's, Warbling Vireos, BH Grosbeaks. I suspect we'll get a large pulse with the coming high pressure in about a week.
