Beautiful Little Palm Warbler At Fort Hill On Cape Cod.
We were having our picnic breakfast at Fort Hill the other morning when this little bird started hopping around on the split-rail fence. Phil got his camera out and clicked away, thinking it was just “another” sparrow. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
And then I pulled up my iBird Photo Sleuth on my iPhone and it said it was 99% a Palm Warbler. Wow!! We had never seen one before, so it was a first on our Life List!
When viewing the range map, it looks like the Palm Warbler was migrating from Canada and the northern states to southeastern USA, the West Indies and the Yucatán Peninsula. Very cool!

Semi-Palmated Plover And Sandpipers At Boat Meadow Beach On Cape Cod.
It was a gorgeous morning to take a walk on Boat Meadow Beach. I almost missed this little Semi-palmated Plover and Sandpipers scurrying about on the mud flats looking for food. (Click on blog link for other photo.) They blended in so well with the sand and mud.
Have you ever seen a Semi-palpated Plover? Pretty bird!
