After returning from a month-long trip to Bird Pergatory (a.k.a. the
beautiful Mediterranean isle of Malta), I thirsted for a taste of migration
in a land where no one shoots or traps passerines. Fortunately, jet lag
woke me before sunrise. I headed over to Hughes Hollow (HH), followed by
Seneca (S). Here are migrant highlights:
white-eyed vireo 1 HH
blue-headed vireo 1 HH
warbling vireo 1 S
yellow-throated vireo 1 HH
northern parula 8 S
yellow warbler 2 HH
black-throated green warbler 2 S

major surprise)
