9/11/11,  A.M.    Carver's Gap, as well as some pull-offs off TN143 close to 
the gap.

I met up this morning with Don Holt at Carver's Gap. Tennessee Warblers have 
arrived in large numbers at Carver's Gap, and an interesting mix of other 
warblers was also seen. Don spotted a Golden-winged Warbler that flew from a 
flock of agitated songbirds that were mobbing something at the top of a Spruce. 
Don thought that it might be a Northern Saw-whet Owl, but we weren't able to 
find the source of the birds' annoyance after investigating for a while.

Warblers:

Golden-winged            -     1
Tennessee                 -    30+
Nashville                    -     1
Chestnut-sided           -     2
Magnolia                    -     2
Cape May                  -     6
Black-throated Blue     -    4
Black-throated Green   -    3
Blackburnian               -    2
Palm                          -    2
Black & White            -    1
Hooded                      -    1

selected other birds:

Broad-winged Hawk    -     1
Red-breasted Nuthatch -   2
Golden-crowned Kinglet-   3
Ruby-crowned Kinglet   -   1
Swainson's Thrush       -   6
Hermit Thrush              -   1
Cedar Waxwing            -   1
Blue-headed Vireo        -   2
Scarlet Tanager            -  2
Rose-breasted Grosbeak- 1

Don may have other birds to add to this list since he was at the gap awhile 
before I arrived.
