Things have really slowed down at our home in the Irmo area of Columbia,SC,
since the heat settled in several days ago. The winter residents have
apparently left.
However, today I heard Blackpoll Warblers singing in the trees in our back
yard, and I got a good look at one of them. They are right on schedule
compared to previous years, when the heat settles in and the NAMC is coming.
I hope these Blackpolls linger here through tomorrow's count.
In my experience, the Blackpolls are like a "lagniappe" for the migration,
a little extra something after the big show.
