Spring Warblers and More at Garret Mountain

Garret Mountain in West Patterson is a good place to see many migrating warblers in the Spring. We went on Saturday and saw several of these darling birds.

Black-throated Blue Warbler

Wood Thrush

Another Wood Thrush (previously unidentified)

Black and White Warbler

Black-throated Green Warbler

Veery

Ovenbird

American Redstart

This bird stayed fairly high in the trees and was difficult to photograph. He wasn't nearly as cooperative as the palm warbler.

Baltimore Oriole

Chris was glad to see her first oriole of the year. We've been hearing some at home but they have not come to the jelly, oranges, or nectar we have left out. We finally did see one in our neighborhood last evening but not in our yard yet.

We had a noni plant outside our cottage at Geejam. Every morning a black-throated blue warbler would come by for breakfast. A bananaquit would frequent here as well, but we got better pictures of them in a nearby tree.
