This afternoon I walked about a mile and a half of the west section of the 
North Boundary Trail in Roane County, Tennessee.  The high point for me was 
watching a Prothonotary Warbler drying off after bathing in the water near the 
large beaver dam.  The warbler perched on a limb and preened, fluttered its 
wings and occasionally sang for at least 5 minutes.  I also had a brief look at 
a Blue-headed Vireo.  Other highlights included:

 

3 Northern Parulas, 

2 Yellow-throated warblers

2 Indigo Buntings

1 Yellow Warbler

4 White-eyed Vireos

4+ Red-eyed Vireos (managed to see one of them)

1 Acadian Flycatcher

3 Eastern Phoebes

3 Blue-gray Gnatcatchers

1 Scarlet Tanager

1 or 2 Pileated Woodpeckers (one was perched high in a dead tree, the other was 
heard only and may have been a flicker)

 

I also heard what may have been a Blue-winged Warbler but I'm not sure and I 
never could find it.

 

Looked like it was going to storm when I started out but it cleared up and 
turned out to be nice weather for a walk.
