Erie County, PA weather over the weekend included light snow, on/off clouds, wind, occasional sunshine, and generally cool temperatures. Migration activity at Presque Isle State Park and other locations seemed very muted – spent multiple hours at “usually good for warblers/vireos” locations and only saw a handful of warblers, e.g., a few Palm Warblers at Leo’s Landing, and in many places, zero. On the other hand, the Yellow Warblers are back, even if in relatively small numbers, and that’s all that matters. #yellow_warbler_is_the_best_warbler

Finally, picking up where we left off in the cartoon Falkland Islands…
Have a nice week!
Thank goodness the P’a came back in time for the intrepid birders to see them….more than what happened to some other folks!
