Mourning warbler question

I was just wondering.... isn't May 11th in CT pretty early for a Mourning Warbler?  I was under the impression that they were among the latest migrating warblers, arriving in the Gulf coast now.

How does this arrival date coincide with previous years or early dates?  Mourning is one of my favs since I watched one all weekend last June in Vermont.  Going back to the same place on Friday!

I hope he is still there in the morn!
