Orioles return

May 3, 2024 by Team Journey North

Always a favorite, orioles are returning to summer breeding grounds, with Bullock's orioles in the West and a multitude of Baltimore oriole reports from the Midwest and East. Throughout the past month, we've also received great reports and photos of loons, bald eagles and barn swallows.

Slow Progress of Spring Migration

Dear Journey North Readers,

Migration is picking up, but it is slow. More species are showing up, but only a few individuals of each. In Texas and Louisiana, more White-eyed Vireos and Common Yellowthroats arrived, along with some more Ruby-throated Hummingbirds and the first Black-throated-green Warbler. In Georgia, the first Red-eyed Vireo, Ovenbird, Baltimore Oriole, and Great Crested Flycatcher were seen, and over the past week, I have seen a couple of Louisiana Waterthrushes, Blue-gray Gnatcatchers, and Northern Rough-winged Swallows.
