Above Par Birding at Cox Hall Creek WMA - Sunday, October 15th, 2017

With ten species of warblers and six species of sparrows, it sure seemed like fall, despite the summery temperatures. Two White-crowned Sparrows were among the many Palm Warblers and Ruby-crowned Kinglets in the brushy fields and a first-of-season Junco was seen, along with Brown Creeper and Yellow-bellied Sapsucker.
