[TN-Bird] Birding Look Rock Trail on Foothills Parkway

I paid my first visit to the Foothills Parkway in east TN on Sunday, the  
21st.  With me was experienced birder, Ken Dubke.  The highlight  for me was 
the sweet female Black-throated Green warbler, foraging in the  rhododendrum 
thickets near the radio transmission station (I think that's what  it was).

Of special enjoyment also were the additional warblers identified  by song: 
 Ovenbird, Chestnut-sided, Hooded, Pine, and Worm eating  warblers.  We 
also had red-eyed vireos and blue-headed vireos singing  over-head, resulting 
in a tired neck and for me and two glimpses of the blue in  flight.
 
In all, despite muggy, 90-degree conditions and swarming knats (!)  we had 
20 species.
