I spent about 45 minutes birding the yard and driveway this morning from
7:00-7:45 AM and was happy to find warblers in abundance.  I ended up with
10 species, as follows:
Tennessee - 3
Nashville - 3
Magnolia - 3
Bay-breasted - 6 (probably more; they were chasing each other around
constantly)
Blackburnian - 1-2 (one was right over the driveway when I walked out)
Cape May - 1 (crippling looks at a singing male)
Ovenbird - 2
Chestnut-sided - 5
Blackpoll - 1
Black-throated Green - 2

Other migrants:
Swainson's Thrush - 6
Gray-cheeked Thrush - 1-2 (both singing and calling)
Red-eyed Vireo - 4 (I can't rule out the possibility of one being a Philly
but I've never been able to distinguish those songs)
Summer Tanager - 2
Scarlet Tanager - 1
Blue-gray Gnatcatcher - 3
Great-crested Flycatcher - 1
Rose-breasted Grosbeak - abundant at our feeders; we call them Grospiggies.
Indigo Bunting - 1
Not a bad way to start the day.
