Hi Rick,
I used to see hooded warblers on territory in Devil’s Den Preserve.
Best,
Jim

Just had a Hooded Warbler call clear as a bell from the woods between our house and the swamp here on Spectacle Lane in Wilton.

I couldn’t get eyes on it, but it’s the first I’ve ever heard here.

Hi Gregg -

Black Skimmer is not common in Connecticut - most would call it a 'good' bird, meaning that most birders would be happy to see one.  That said, they are not technically 'rare' here either - they are somewhat regular, meaning that we have them around every year, but usually there are not many!

I'm pasting a link to the eBird species map for the Skimmer - the link is horribly long but it should work:

https://ebird.org/map/blkski?neg=true&env.minX=&env.minY=&env.maxX=&env.maxY=&zh=false&gp=false&ev=Z&excludeExX=false&excludeExAll=false&mr=1-12&bmo=1&emo=12&yr=all&byr=1900&eyr=2024

If it doesn't work, you can use the eBird species map to check on this and any other species:  https://ebird.org/map

eBird has some great tools to explore birds!

I hope this information helps.

Is the black skimmer common in CT? Saw one in Westbrook recently. Have pictures that gave me identification
