[AHoodedWarbler@xxxxxxx]

It's difficult to know if some of them were summer residents or migrants, but 
the variety of bird species around my home in Hampton, Carter Co., TN, ticked 
up slightly this past weekend.
I had Eastern Phoebe, Acadian Flycatcher and Eastern Wood-Pewee as well as 
Gray Catbirds, Blue-gray Gnatcatchers and Chimney Swifts.

I also had several warblers, including a singing male Hooded Warbler as well 
as Black-and-white Warbler and Black-throated Blue Warbler. I also had a 
Red-eyed Vireo. Two warblers got away before I could identify them. 

Red-breasted Nuthatches returned on Sept. 2. This is the first year in 
several years I have failed to detect them in August.
