<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large;color:#073763">We've just had a small flurry of NASHVILLE WARBLERS in Jefferson County, considering there were only two prior records on eBird. They are rather rare on the Olympic Peninsula. Jackie Canterbury recorded one singing on May 3 on Marrowstone Island; Brian Ellis found one yesterday at Kah Tai Lagoon, Port Townsend; and today Peter Mann and I had presumably Ellis's (near the small pond) and another further north in the riparian woods at Kah Tai. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large;color:#073763"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large;color:#073763">Record shots of the latter are here, along with a full list. The place was dripping with migrants, mostly Wilson's Warblers. <br><a href="https://ebird.org/checklist/S109457349">https://ebird.org/checklist/S109457349</a><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large;color:#073763"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large;color:#073763">good birding, </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large;color:#073763"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large;color:#073763"><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, May 9, 2022 at 1:03 PM Daniel Lipinski <<a href="mailto:dano135@hotmail.com" target="_blank">dano135@hotmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

After nearly a decade of scanning through flocks of migrating warblers as they move through my Bainbridge Island yard I finally saw a Nashville warbler. Well - more like it found me. During Mother's Day brunch - right outside my dinning room window in a vine
maple (frequented by our resident Wilson's warblers) there was a big beautiful male Nashville. Dark head, solid bold eye-ring, yellow throat and undertail coverts - unmistakable.... but I still confirmed it wasn't a Mac Gilvary's - neither species I see often.
It was much brighter than the OCWA in the tree with it. That makes species 76 for the yard. Also - within the last week we've had a switch from majority male Audubon's yellow rumps - to mostly female with some myrtles mixed in. Add Townsends, black-throated
gray, and Wilson's I am at my typical year worth of warbler species.... Maybe I can coax a Yellow warbler in - does anyone make a warbler call? lol. FOY Pac slopes are back in force and had a Swainsons thrush seen and heard "whit-ing" this weekend as well.
Oh - and had a white throated sparrow a few weeks ago just down the street. </div>
