October Big Day

Yard birds

Sussex County, NJ

Yesterday, I was looking for whatever the crows were harassing. This Merlin rocketed over the bushes in front of me, banked around me, and dropped down below the bushes behind me. I didn’t even try to get a shot. The best part of my day - full stop.

It was quite dark by the time I arrived, but there were hummingbirds as far as the eye could see.

This is a fledgling Northern Parula. I believe it is the smallest warbler that breeds in the northern forest.

Prospect Park

 

It was a beautiful day to walk through Prospect Park today. I like the cooler weather, as do the migrating birds, and now that school is back on, the park was very quiet. It's always humbling trying to capture warbler shots and I forget that in the fall they don't really sing, so they are harder to find, and there is way more foliage and overgrowth than during the spring migration.

I'm calling it a Least Flycatcher.
