Whether we call our passion (obsession) bird-watching or birding, there is no question what warbling is - the quest to find those flittery little migrants known as Wood-Warblers. Yesterday wasn’t a top day of warbling, but we spotted our first warblers of the season (besides the nearly year-round Yellow-rumped Warblers).
We spent some time between counting cranes and Dakota’s baseball practice visiting Sugar River Forest Preserve, a fantastic warbling hotspot.

Pine Warbler - aptly named in this shot

The warbling season has begun and we know it will be a busy one!!
