["Mayhorn" <mayhorn@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Area Birders,
The birds continue their migration through Buchanan County. One interesting 
species that passed through my yard was a YELLOW WARBLER. My first thought was 
Orange-crowned, but Orange-crowns don't migrate this early and this bird does 
not fit the bill. Since most Yellow Warblers migrate early, this one, according 
to Peterson, is probably a member of the northerly subspecies, amnicola, that 
migrates through the eastern U.S. in September and October. It is one of the 
few warblers that  migrates during the day. I did manage to get several decent 
photos, but they have not been posted to the Buchanan County Bird Club web site.
 This week some of the species that have been observed here are AMERICAN 
REDSTARTS, BAY-BREASTED, BLACK-AND-WHITE WARBLERS, BLACKBURNIAN WARBLERS, 
BLACK-THROATED BLUES, BLACK-THROATED GREENS, BLUE-HEADED VIREOS, CAPE MAY 
WARBLERS, CHIPPING SPARROWS, EASTERN KINGBIRDS, EASTERN WOOD PEWEES, HOODED 
WARBLERS, INDIGO BUNTINGS, MAGNOLIA WARBLERS, NASHVILLE WARBLERS, NORTHERN 
FLICKERS, RED-EYED VIREOS, ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAKS, RUBY-THROATED HUMMINGBIRDS, 
SCARLET TANAGERS, SWAINSON'S THRUSHES, TN WARBLERS, WHITE-EYED VIREOS, WOOD 
THRUSHES, WHITE-EYED VIREOS, YELLOW-THROATED VIREOS and YELLOW-THROATED 
WARBLERS.

Enjoy the birds,
