[TN-Bird] Connecticut and Mourninig Warblers and Olive-sided FLycatcher at Cravens House

A nice wave of migrant passerines was present at the Cravens House
(Hamilton Co.) yesterday morning and afternoon (5/19).  A male
CONNECTICUT and MOURNING WARBLER were heard and SEEN by Clyde Blum, Gary
Brunvoll, Dan Williams and I.  The Connecticut was along Cravens Terrace
just below the lower parking lot at the Cravens House.  The Mourning was
about a quarter mile down the Hardy Trail.  Around 1640 EDT I found a
OLIVE-SIDED FLYCATCHER in the "Olive-sided Flycatcher tree" along
Cravens Terrace.  I have seen at least 5 in this dead tree through the
years.
A total of 14 species of warblers were seen:

2 Canada

1 Magnolia

3 Blackburnian

1 Black-throated Green

1 Chestnut-sided

1 Tennessee

1 Blackpoll

1 Black and White

1 Worm-eating

2 Kentucky

4 Hooded

1 Connecticut

1 Mourning

 

 

Clyde Blum and I continued to the Brainerd Levee with the highlights
including:

2 Semipalmated Plover (FOS)

1 Semipalmated Sandpiper (FOS)
1 Spotted 

5 Least Sandpiper
