I encountered a decent flock of warblers near the Elizabethton
Recycling Center on the Watauga River in Carter County this morning
(Sept. 3) about 10 a.m.

The flock included:
Yellow Warbler (1)
Blackburnian Warbler (1)
Magnolia Warbler (1)
American Redstart (2)

In addition:
Empid Sp. (2)
Field Sparrow (8)
Eastern Towhee (1)
Gray Catbird (1)
Chimney Swift (1)
Carolina Chickadee (3)

This is really the first decent mixed-species flock I have seen this
fall. I also got a good look at a Red-Spotted Purple Butterfly.
