Sorry if this gets repeated. The message didn't get to my inbox: I saw a male Black-throated Blue Warbler at 10:05 this morning near the end of the bluff trail at Old Cedar Bridge. Past all the wooden walkways the path runs into a small creek in an area just across the lake from the Black Dog power plant. One can turn left there and walk a couple hundred feet to an easy crossing of the creek. The bird was by a path just left of this crossing place. There were good warbler numbers and variety here today, but it hasn't been as good for warblers as other metro areas that I've been hearing about. I think this is the earliest fall Blue migrant I've seen. So far this fall migration may make up for the lousy spring one around here. Jim
