[TN-Bird] Worm eating warbler nest

Today on the Little Swan Trail at the Meriwether Lewis Site along the Natchez 
Trace, I watched a worm eating warbler building her nest. The nest is along a 
bank that leads down to the Little Swan Creek. Over a five minute period  I 
observed the same scenario about 4 times. The bird, with nesting material in 
her mouth, would return to a branch near the nest. Then she's drop down to a 
closer branch and then hop down the the ground, She disappeared into a small 
opening covered with dead leaves. A few seconds later she popped out and flew 
off to return and repeat the same steps.
