Following Brainard's post last week about Swainson's warbler at the
Gorge, I decided to head down there last Saturday. The first bird I saw
that morning about 100 feet past the shelter on Hood's Branch Trail was
a Swainson's warbler! A lifer for me and not because I hadn't looked
for them many times before.
I then proceeded to Rock Bridge Trail and took the spur along Swift Camp
Creek. Heard one across the creek at the "Old Logging Dam" sign, waded
across, and saw another one!! Also saw many hoodeds (more common than
titmice and chickadees), black-throated greens, black and whites, and
blue-headed vireos.
What a great day and thanks a lot Brainard!
