[TN-Bird] Some early birds in west TN

I've done some birding amongst work trips to northwest TN over the last =
week or so.  Here's some highlights:

Barn Swallow (1), 21 March 08 in Crockett Co at Highway 88 and 412.

Short-eared Owl (1), 21 March 08 at dawn on Great River Rd in Dyer Co.

Northern Parula (2), 25 Mar 08, Great River Rd area in Dyer Co, had 6 on =
26 Mar 08

Black-and-White Warbler (1), Great River Rd area in Dyer Co, 25 March 08

Blue-gray Gnatcatcher (2) on 25 March, 7 on 26 March 08, Great River Rd =
area in Dyer Co

Hooded Warbler (1) singing his alternate song on 25 March 08, Great River =
Rd area in Dyer Co (what's the early date for this species?)

Scattered White-eyed Vireo's in Dyer Co singing their hearts out.

Cheers,
