Marsh Creek
Cypress Creek
Both off TN River
Perry County, TN
May 31 thru June 3
Please forgive the long delay in posting the following observations...

During the Memorial Day holiday we anchored our boat at both Marsh Creek and 
Cypress Creeks in Perry County.  On all of the days we were out we would be 
visited by Prothonotary Warblers.  One and sometimes two birds would fly out to 
the boat and sit atop the outside rearview mirrors.  It (they) would then 
observe themselves in the mirrors.  Things never turned violent as in other 
species.  Also observed was nesting material brought out by the warblers and 
placed in the boat's horn.  I got a couple of decent digital images before the 
batteries died (then I remembered what I had forgotten to do--recharge 
batteries!).
