\"Why?<\/a>

Why?<\/p><\/div>\n

Why? Pure anthropomorphism of course (and proud of it!). No, not really. But if a bird could frame the question, this one certainly is. This specimen was part of the flood of Yellow-rumped Warblers on their way south the second half of last week. For days they were everywhere within a mile of the coast. I am headed for Cape May, New Jersey, and the Autumn Bird Show the end of the month. I generally catch the height of the Yellow-rumped migration there…but it looks like it might have passed early this year. Time will tell. Yesterday, after a day of rain, the wind set in from the south-west, and there were no Yellow-rumps in the trees along the Bridle Path. Why indeed! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
