I am a bit amazed at the numbers of departing warblers already. Interesting=
in that I have a nest here on the property with just-hatched Common Yellow=
throat!=20
Are the early departures those who have the longest voyage? i.e. their wint=
ering grounds are the farthest from here? Lots of questions, I am sure more=
answers will be available as we are more able to monitor migration through=
various means. What you are doing is a nice lens on the situation, I alway=
s find it fascinating! Keep up the good work.

42774 div.yiv1641342774WordSection1 {}-->Hi All,The rate of nocturnal movem=
ents of warblers at Carleton, Yarmouth County, almost doubled over the prev=
ious week. There was a total of 240 calls and at least 181 individual birds=
at a rate of 34 calls per night. Warblers composed 99% of the calls record=
ed. Despite a continuing variety in species composition, early migrating wa=
rbler species dominated the count. The most common species were American Re=
dstart (69 calls), Black-and-White Warbler (45 calls), and Yellow Warbler (=
34 calls). The numbers of these three species seemed to indicate true, sout=
h-bound migration, rather than post-breeding dispersion. A summary list can=
be found below.The weather radars in the state of Maine, at Caribou and Po=
rtland, showed only light activity but with evidence of bird migration on m=
ost nights when there was no rain. This, and previous reports, are posted a=
