Slim Pickins

Tough weekend for new species. All of last weeks visitors are still coming through, and only two new arrivals, but they are beauties.

The Bay-breasted Warbler has some exotic colors to it -- the pictures I have located don't seem to do it justice, really. The chestnut color is elegant and rich, and the transition from the chestnut to the black at the head is quite sharp. There were only a few, male and female. In past years they arrived alongside the Chestnut-sided Warbler, but not this year. I expect to see the latter any day now.
