Heard 4-5 singing male Prothonotary Warblers along the Grand Bay boardwalk this morning, so they seem to be back nearly in full force.  Heard a Hooded Warbler and Red-eyed Vireo near the boat ramp/ check station.  Numerous Northern Parulas, Pine Warblers and Common Yellowthroats, and a few Yellow-throated Warblers were singing throughout the WMA.

Near the WMA entrance was a nice mixed flock with all 4 of the common vireos, plus Black-and-white Warbler, several Palm Warblers (including two Yellow Palms, and all uncharacteristically high in the canopy), Yellow-rumped Warblers, a Hermit Thrush and now singing Ruby-crowned Kinglets.  And a flyover Osprey.

9 species of warblers and 4 vireos ain't bad, all of them seasonal or permanent residents.
