Traveling in the south – some sketches

Yellow-rumped (Myrtle) Warblers have been our constant companions the past four days. And they will probably be the most numerous warbler for most of our trip.

Once we were in southern pines Pine Warblers became quite common.

Yellow-throated Warblers are one of the least common warblers that we’ve had so far. But they should be present in small numbers for the rest of our time in the south.

Small number of White-eyed Vireos starting showing up the other day and their numbers should remain constant for the rest of the trip.

Oak mistletoe, one of my favorite southern plants and a parasite of southern oaks has been constant since southern Kentucky.

Besides the large numbers of Black-bellied Whistling Ducks that we had a Savannah National Wildlife Refuge, we’ll be getting more in Florida.

And that ends todays post. Who knows what tomorrow will bring?
