David,
I intended to reply to this post sooner but got sidetracked. I was just looking
at our BCBC database, and I was surprised to learn that we have no records of
Swainson's Warblers in the county past June. In fact the latest date we have is
for June 23, 1986. That was one that you found on the Prospector's Trail in the
Breaks Park. Of course it's possbile you or someone else might have a July
record for one that I don't have in the database.
Congratulations on finding this one in September! You would think that as many
warblers as we see each fall at your place and mine, that one of us would have
seen one during migration, but so far it hasn't happened.

Dad & I had a late evening walk in the Breaks Park today.Bird activity was
almost non-existent, as has been the norm in recent days. We were very
surprised when @ 7:30 we heard a Swainson's Warbler sing from an area near this
year's territory. I don't believe I've ever heard one in August or September
here in Breaks before. In fact, fall records for Swainson's Warbler are hard
to come by . Anyone have any to share? Dave R/Breaks VA
