["Anna Varney" <livingglass@xxxxxxx>]

At 12:05 this afternoon I had my first Blue-grey Gnatcatcher of the year in the 
yard, searching for goods within a climbing rose.  Meanwhile, there where two 
White-throated Sparrows under the holly and a couple of juncos on the lawn and 
driveway. 
At 2:30 this afternoon I had my first Scarlet Tanager in the front woods.  
Earliest yard record is April 8, 2003.

At 4:00 this afternoon I had my first encounter with seed ticks (appx 75 at 
once) while working the compost heap.  I envy those of you in East and West TN 
that don't (-;
