After getting a call from Keenan yesterday mid morning about a Common Yellowthroat at Arcadia I decided to make a late morning trip over to see if I could find it. I arrived around ten and found the bird in the area Keenan had it. It would call occasionally and stayed hidden most of the time. As I was getting photos of it another yellowthroat popped into view (this one was an adult male)...two Common Yellowthroats in the same area in late November made my morning. My previous late date for the species in the county was Nov 2nd back in 2013. The juvenile Red headed Woodpecker continued at the same location. Full list here:

I had just a little time this morning before other obligations would keep me busy for the remainder of the morning but it was another great visit to Arcadia with highlights including a Cackling Goose, nearly 30 Wood Ducks, two Yellow rumped Warblers and at least two Common Yellowthroats among 37 species in just about an hour. I would have loved to have stayed longer as I checked just a couple spots and there was lots of activity. Full list here:
