I was joined by 3 lovely ladies this morning at Governor Bridge. Diane, Dianne and Linda V. are members of the AABC and were able to get some time to explore with me, and we knocked ’em dead. Many warblers showed up early, along with some other nice birds, and the ladies kept birding while I searched for bugs.
A good time was had by all.
Sunrise at Governor Bridge
This Chestnut Sided Warbler was shot in the early morning light with a flash.

Black Throated Green Warblers were still migrating in good numbers.
I was very lucky to capture two Cape May Warblers in one image.
I’ve never seen so many Cape May Warblers.
This Northern Parula was a mild surprise.
This Northern Cardinal ignored us while he was eating.
This Common Yellowthroat seemed to be solo.
I couldn’t ignore an Eastern Phoebe who was so eager to pose.
This distant Raven is just here for the record-a first.
Red Eyed Vireos are fueling up for migration.
Ruby Crowned Kinglets seem to migrate in large numbers.
This Tufted Titmouse has a real mouthful.
