A couple more new ones today, which were both new yard birds for me here. A
singing black-throated green warbler early this morning, and then a singing
Nashville warbler greeted me when I got home from work this evening. The
annual rose-breasted grosbeak feeder conquest is in full swing.
I forgot to mention yesterday that the appearance of my first female
hummingbird (yesterday) occurred 11 days after the first male arrived (for
those who are interested in such things).

I haven't been out since Saturday, but have some new birds around the
house here in Calvert City. First *female* hummingbird just a few minutes
ago... have had up to 3 males at one time this week. First indigo bunting
(for the yard) earlier today. Rose-breasted grosbeaks are increasing in
numbers at the feeders. Singing yellow warbler and at least two parulas
yesterday evening.
I also still have two red-breasted nuthatches, of the four that showed up
last fall, and a pair of nesting Carolina wrens inside a light fixture on
my garage.
Hope to see you all in Henderson on Saturday.
