[TN-Bird] FW: swainson's warbler dearth this year?

Steve,

I had three Swainson's Warblers on territory on my Tellico BBS route
(Cherokee NF, Monroe Co) on Tuesday (6/20)and heard at least two others
as I was trout fishing on the Bald River on 6/19. I actually witnessed
one carrying a food item. That is most I have had on that BBS route and
in that area in the last 15 years.

I have recorded only one Swainson's Warbler this year so far (in Morgan
County during the Oliver Springs BBS), and I have heard of very few
being found in their usual Upper Cumberland haunts this breeding season
(one near Jett Bridge in the Obed Wild and Scenic River, Morgan Co., TN,
one at Natural Arch, Daniel Boone Nat. For., McCreary Co. KY, and
several in the Little Lick area of the Daniel Boone Nat. For. in Pulaski
Co., KY).  I'm wondering if others have had the same experience in or
out of the Region in Tennessee or Kentucky, or if my experience (and
that of several others) is just a case of bad timing.
