The last two days have seen a distinct shift in tempo for our tour. With migration slowing a little at Magee Marsh we've been able to concentrate on finding some of the scarcer breeding species in Ohio and Michigan. We also added two species to our ever growing warbler list for the tour, finding
Blue-winged yesterday at Oak Openings and
Cerulean today near Ann Harbor in Michigan. The highlight would have to be the
Henslow's Sparrows that we found singing today (05/17) near Ann Harbor before embarking on the long drive to Grayling, MI.
Acadian Flycatcher - singing bird near Ann Harbor, MI.
Cerulean Warbler - singing male near Ann Harbor, MI.
Eastern Whip-poor-will - Magee Marsh, NW Ohio. May 16th. 2013.
Remarkably, our third roosting 'whip' of the tour.
Henslow's Sparrow - near Ann Harbor, MI.
Red-headed Woodpecker - Oak Openings Preserve, NW Ohio. May 16th, 2013.
