A morning hike up Caney Island Branch this morning yielded 32 species of birds, 
including some resident warblers: Kentucky, Hooded, Black-and-white, Ovenbird, 
Northern Parula, Yellow-throated, Black-throated Green, Redstart, Chat, and 
Cerulean. Noticeably quiet were Blue-winged and Worm-eating. I watched a female 
Kentucky feeding a youngster, and during the hike I heard many faint chips and 
twitters I took to be fledglings. 
   
  Other species included the following birds:
  Scarlet Tanager
  Pileated Woodpecker
  Downy Woodpecker
  Northern Flicker
  Red-tailed Hawk
  Northern Cardinal
  Tufted Titmouse
  American Crow
  Blue Jay
  American Goldfinch
  Acadian Flycatcher
  Song Sparrow
  Wild Turkey
  Yellow-billed Cuckoo
  Mourning Dove
  Eastern Phoebe
  American Robin
  Carolina Wren
  Tree Swallow
  Wood Thrush
  Eastern Towhee
  Red-eyed Vireo
