I have had a good summer locating singing Warbling Vireo's....two yesterday 
just below the John Sevier plant.  Earlier (May) I found one at Mossy Creek/ 
Cherokee lake (Jefferson Co) and later (June) below Cherokee Dam.  I have also 
seen them in MN, OH, and KY with the KY bird (Gen. Butler SP) singing from a 
nest.  All birds were along rivers or lakes and in sycamore or cottonwood trees 
just as the field guides tell us.  

 

Other bird of interest at the steam plant:  5 great egrets, a flock of purple 
martins, and a yellow-throated warbler.  

 

No brown-headed nuthatch or pine warbler....but it looks promising for a return 
trip (not in the middle of day with machinery noise).

 

Been birdn?
