This morning I had a couple rose-breasted grosbeaks at my feeders and this afternoon a young male scarlet tanager was sneaking around in my spruce tree (pictures attached). Late morning, Eric and I hiked part of the pinnacle trail in Unicoi and as we were almost back to the parking area we hit a little hot spot that included a few downy and red-bellied woodpeckers , several blue-headed vireos, chickadees and titmice, several red-breasted and white-breasted nuthatches , a carolina wren, a golden-cr. kinglet, a hood warbler, a redstart and a black-throated blue warbler. It was after 11 am and the trail was pretty much dead until then. You just never know. K. Noblet Johnson City, Carter Co.
