Thinking about it, most warblers and vireos must cross the ocean from New E=
ngland because they are often reported first in the Digby/Yarmouth/Shelburn=
e. But then why does it take so long for us to get Blue-headed Vireo consid=
ering they are already further north in Maine than those counties?

They are common by May but while April 24 is not unprecedented it is defini=
tely early for Blue-headed Vireo in NS. To date, the earliest accepted eBir=
d report is April 26.

The following link shows the progress of their impending arrival according =
to this month=92s eBird sightings. You can see that the leading edge of the=
 wave is halfway across Maine now

I wish we had a resource that would tell us which species will cross the oc=
ean from New England and which will only migrate via NB. But judging by the=
ir scare reports in April and seeing how many are in Maine now I=92m guessi=
ng Blue-headed Vireo come in from NB?

Had a Blue-headed Vireo in our little woodlot today. It was feeding in the =
company of a male and female Yellow-rumped Warbler and a Brown Creeper.

Entered the report on E-bird and it said that Blue-headed Vireo was conside=
red rare for this location and date. That kind of surprised me as I've had =
them here before May 17, 2014 and a pair on May 08, 2016. It must have been=
 the relatively early date that sent up the alert.
