Yellow-rumped Warblers, which have been around all winter, have just started to sing and they were everywhere on today’s Cox Hall Creek WMA walk, in an interesting array of plumages from drab to full-alternate/breeding plumage. We also had good looks at Blue- headed Vireos with one giving its slow and repetitive song.
