["Mayhorn" <mayhorn@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Area Birders,
The thrushes were really active this morning in the thick fog here on Compton 
Mt. Several were feeding with TOWHEES and GRAY CATBIRDS on Dogwood berries. At 
least 2 SWAINSON'S fed in the fog as well as 2 GRAY-CHEEKED and 3 WOOD 
THRUSHES.  I could hear more birds fluttering about under the trees but it was 
too dark to ID them.
Other birds found out in the open where they could be identified were a female 
COMMON YELLOWTHROAT, a PALM WARBLER, a TN WARBLER,  2 BROWN THRASHERS, 2 CEDAR 
WAXWINGS, 15 CHIPPING SPARROWS, 2 ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAKS, 2 SCARLET TANAGERS, 
6 BLUE JAYS, 6 BLUEBIRDS, 2 EASTERN WOOD PEWEES, 1 EASTERN PHOEBE, 1 
RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET, 1 NORTHERN FLICKER, and 1 juvenile WHITE-EYED VIREO.

Enjoy the birds,
