A gorgeous morning. An hour or so at Marblehead Neck. The warbler songscape was intense. Blackpoll twinkling at the upper frequencies.

Redstart, black-throated blue, parula, black-throated green, yellowthroat, magnolia. All singing at once. Wood thrush, veery, and scarlet tanager too.

Most of the time up in the leafy canopy and difficult to see. But sometimes one would descend.

My most disappointing photograph of the day: this flycatcher (who didn't vocalize a single time).

This photo was supposed to help me judge the thickness of the eye-ring.
Don't get me wrong. I wasn't able to get any good photos. But just being there in that soundscape was enough for me.
