[Tweeters] active migration on Larch Mountain, Clark County

[Jim Danzenbaker]

Hi Tweeters,

Fun times at Migration Corner on Larch Mountain, Clark County this morning.
 231 individual warblers of 8 species counted but that was probably low.
Highlights included:

Townsend's Warbler - 108
Nashville Warbler - 3
Red-breasted Nuthatch - 43 (this is the most I have ever seen in one place
in Clark County.  All were in active migration including one group of 15)
Western Tanager - 30 (including one flock of 12)

The east wind concentrated the migrants through the gap that is Migration
Corner.

Here's the ebird checklist which has location information (Mountain View
4x4 Trailhead is the actual location which is about 1/4 southeast of the
Migration Corner marker).  https://ebird.org/checklist/S147245722

Persied Meteor Shower viewing prior to daybreak at the same location!

Keep your eyes and ears skyward.

Jim
