Uh..
I'm in western West Virginia and new to birding. When can I expect to see some migrating birds? Looking forward to seeing and hearing some new species this fall/winter!

Uh..
Is there a resource out there that shows the more common vs rare species? I saw a Wilson's Warbler and a Connecticut warbler this weekend, as well as a few others that I couldn't ID. Just curious how often certain species are spotted.

Uh..
Arrived a little bit after daylight today and the warblers were very active. Saw my first Blackburnian and observed him for about 45 seconds. Very cool! I think i'm going to go again tomorrow to a different spot and see what shows up.

Uh..
Saw several lifers today for my first Spring migration in West Virginia. Hooded Warbler, Northern Parula, Blackburnian Warbler, Black-throated Green Warbler, Yellow-throated Warbler, Black-throated Blue Warbler, and lots of Summer Tanagers, Baltimore Orioles, Scarlet Tanagers, Indigo Buntings, and Rose-breasted Grosbeaks.

It was a great morning. Can't wait to get out again tomorrow and see what's out there.
