Fall Migrants at the Rea Farm - Saturday, September 12th, 2015

What started out as a slow morning quickly accelerated, then never slowed down again. Mixed flocks of migrants contained warblers, vireos, tanagers and orioles. Male and female Scarlet Tanagers were resplendent in the yellow-green of their fall plumage and a close, young Black-and-white Warbler was a real stunner. A few of the group even got to see a Northern Waterthrush in the scope, feeding as it bobbed along on the floor of the wet woods. Leaders: Kathy & Roger Horn, Karl Lukens, Deb Payson, and Carrie Bell.
