The highlight of my walk up Caney Island Branch this morning was a pair (male
and female) of Kentucky Warblers, my FOS, in the low branches of an Autumn
Olive tree. I had the pleasure of watching them for several minutes. I hope
they are considering that area as a potential home. I also saw my FOS Redstarts
(5) and my FOS Scarlet Tanagers (4). In addition to close-up looks at the
Scarlet Tanagers and some Indigo Buntings, I had incredible looks at all the
warbler species on my list, which added up to a remarkable morning. The Hooded
Warblers and the Redstarts were especially active. The Hoodeds seemed insistent
that I look them over as they sang and scuffled with each other at eye-level
just a few yards from the trail.

Kentucky -- 2
Redstart -- 5
Black-and-white -- 9
