Hey Jim! This was fun! Thank you!
Great pictures and a wake-up call! Thanks
Thanks Jim. I always need a refresher course every spring. Great pictures. I will likely test myself several more times before I go out searching.
Thanks, Jim. This is a great refresher and the photos are beautiful!
Thanks Jim, I’m surprised you didn’t throw in a vireo or kinglet to throw us off
Great job
That was fun. š Thank you!
Great photos and a fun quiz, Jim, thanks. I so look forward to seeing these beauties each Spring.
Excellent photos and Great quiz Jim. I have seen 24 of the 27. Have not seen a Worm-eating, Prairie or Kirtland’s. Have seen 16 of these on Marsh Road. Thank you again for the quiz.
What a great idea, Jim. Had to use my brain, which is good excersize I need. Excellent pictures and certainly a great reference guide. Thanks for sharing . Keep up the great job you always share with us.
Fantastic idea! Great refresher and makes me look so forward to Spring! Thanks for all posting all of these wonderful photos!!
This was an outstanding review!
Beautiful photos too!
Thank you!
Thank you Jim, that was fun. I’m rusty and warblers aren’t my bird, lol. But great photos.
Thank you. I could see you producing flash cards on your etsy shop! š
Fun! Beautiful photos, by the way! How you capture them posing on a perfect branch is beyond me…those things jump around so quickly! I am anxious for their return!
As always, great images. As a neophyte warbler fan this is going to help me a ton. Great idea! By the way I flunked the quiz. But I didnāt get a ā0ā.
I have never seen the Worm- eating, Canada or Prairie Warblers. Great quiz! Excited to see the beauty again!!
Thanks Jim. Great review.
I checked, the migration has not been canceled!
Thanks so much, that was fun!!
Thank you! Great to have such a wonderful preview of things to come!
I failed the Kirtland’s and the Prairie. I’d love to see either!
Cool pictures. All were of the highest aesthetic quality but the Am. Redstart was most striking. Took me longer to recognize it due to deemphasis of the tail and the orange vividness. Itās beak looks too large for a warbler but thatās because itās open a little. Beautiful.
I enjoyed taking the quiz and looking at your beautiful
pictures. It got me excited for April and May Warbler watching. Thanks
Thanks for making this fun challenge. I haven’t seen all of them. I will be reviewing 4 of them.
This was great birding while doing my part on sheltering in place.
I enjoyed the Warbler quiz. It was fun. I hope all of them are having an easy migration this year. It seems to get a bit tougher each year.
Great fun and good test for the upcoming season.
This is great! The refresher is quite helpful, and your effort in doing these “quizzes” is to be commended.
Great review. Very good pictures. Knew most of them, but had to refer to Sibleyā Guide to Eastern Birds because Iām a Utah birder who will be visiting Wisconsin in May. Thanks.
Wonderful (and much needed) spring review). Such great pictures, as always. Thanks for reposting.
Thanks for the tune up for the upcoming Warbler season in May. Great Pictures .
Nice. Missed one. Pine
Got them all right except the worm eating warbler never knew about that one!! Love thisā¦so fun!!
Thanks so very much!!! I definitely need this review!!!
Great fun! And educational as well!
