The number of migrants dramatically increased in my yard this morning with 9 
warbler species (34 individual warblers), 3 vireo species and a Rose-breasted 
Grosbeak.
The warblers were 1 Blue-winged, 15 Tennessees, 1 Northern Parula, 4 
Chestnut-sided, 3 Blackburnians, 4 Black-throated Greens, 3 Yellow-throated 
Warblers, 1 Worm-eating and 2 male Hoodeds.

The vireos were 2 Yellow-throated, 1 Blue-headed and 5 Red-eyed. The last bird 
of the morning was a female Rose-breasted Grosbeak that came in to join the 6 
Scarlet Tanagers that were feeding on the petals of the Crepe Myrtle blossoms. 
Here is a photo of the Grosbeak.
The complete list of 38 species is below.
