Great stuff, Rick-Thanks for the report. I'll be updating the phone hotline today sometime, with an update on spring migration, as well as more knockouts from Point Mouillee just north of Toledo.

This has been a late spring migration, and we could still be getting numbers of migrants well into June.

A brief report from lunchtime yesterday:

*Irwin Prairie held 2 or 3 Alder flycatchers
*Secor Metropark had a singing Parula, as well as Hooded and the other usual suspects (no Cerulean).

My yard in Temperance, MI continues to get migrants daily, as well. Swainsons thrush, redstart, Blackpoll, Magnolia, Chestnut-sided, RE vireo, pewees, tons of waxwings have all been present all week. A surprise was a calling Broad-winged hawk overhead last evening.

The weekend is almost here! (And so is June 1....heh heh)
