[K Dean EDWARDS <kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The last two days (Sat&Sun, 13-14 Sept) we've had a very fussy
immature Red-headed Woodpecker feeding on acorns and especially
Black Gum berries in the backyard (West Knoxville).  It's been
fussing and chasing the starlings all day.  This is only our
second Red-headed WP in the yard; the other was an adult last
spring.

A few other have been passing through as well but few thrushes
feeding on the Black Gum so far.  The first Tennessee Warblers
finally showed up on Saturday as well.
