The Delaware River, which separates Pennsylvania and New Jersey, attracts a large percentage of North America’s famed wood-warbler species as well as orioles, thrushes and tanagers. During our quick trip, we will explore some of the best birding locations in both of these states, within the Delaware River watershed region. A few of the expected warblers we'll seek include: Blue-winged, Golden-winged, Black-throated Blue, Black-and-White, Northern Parula, Ovenbird, Worm-eating, Hooded, Prairie, and the threatened Cerulian Warbler. We should also find Blue-headed and Yellow-throated Vireos; Scarlet Tanagers; Rose-breasted Grosbeak; Wood, Hermit, Swainson's and possibly even Gray-cheeked and Bicknell's Thrush. Several empidonax species should be identifiable by voice, too! Of course, we won't ignore any of the year-round residents like Pileated and Red-headed Woodpeckers.

The exact itinerary for these trips will be determined closer to the migration time to optimize the weather and migration patterns. All birding will be done within the Delaware River watershed in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Only two hotel locations will be used.
