[Bristol-Birds] Pond Mtn Warblers. Vireos, and other birds (Carter Co0nty,TN)

Hello Bristol Area and Tennessee Birders,

Today I had a small touch of Avian Flu which kept me out of work, but 
sent me into the mountains of Carter County over the back forest 
service road of Pond Mountain.

I had a good number of Warblers, Vireos, and other good birds.  Even at 
the highest elevations of Pond Mountain there were numerous 
Black-throated Green Warblers, Blue-headed Vireos, and a surprise 
visiit by a Red-breated Nuthatch.

I was amazed to hear the chatter, mews, and other such neat sounds 
coming from the Blue-headed Vireos present.  I stayed and hunted these 
birds down to make sure that they were indeed Blue-headed Vireos.  This 
is the first year that I can remember that I have heard such chatter 
from these vireos in the field.

I also had many FOY birds.  The birds in all CAPS are FOY (first of 
year).

The Warbler lilst:

Northen Parula
BLACK-THROATED BLUE WARBLER
Black-throated Green Warbler
Black and White Warbler
WORM-EATING WARLBER
OVENBIRD
