To have a good big day you have to be really good, or you have to be really lucky. Big day conditions aren’t an issue for Judy and me anymore. We’ve left the coastal migration behind. Jon however is still on the coast. He went out by himself on a promising day. He got both good and lucky. The migration was monstrous. The warblers were everywhere. Our previous record from earlier this year, 207 birds. The new record, 244 species of birds in one day. 244!
