Ed and I had a hard time leaving our yard today on our way to Beaver Knob for a
morning of birding. A feeder flock here at our house at Weller Yard included
the following warblers:
Yellow-rumped
Yellow-throated
Cape May
Bay-breasted
Magnolia
Pine
Palm
Tennessee
We also found other birds in our yard:
Carolina Wren
Carolina Chickadee
Tufted Titmouse
Chimney Swift
Pileated Woodpecker
Kingfisher
Crow
Bluebird
Scarlet Tanager
White-eyed Vireo
Phoebe
Great Blue Heron
When we finally made it to Beaver Knob, there was so much fog we could only
see about 50 feet in front of us, but the birds did not seem to mind. We were
met by hundreds of Palm Warblers; yes, I said HUNDREDS. We saw several of the
same warbler species we had already seen in our yard, as well as the following
warblers:
Black-throated Blue
Black-throated Green
Chestnut-sided
Blackburnian
Common Yellowthroat
And we also added these species at Beaver Knob:
Blue Jay
Mourning Dove
Killdeer
Flicker
Cardinal
Brown Thrasher
Catbird
Downy Woodpecker
Wild Turkey
Meadowlark
Turkey Vulture
Song Sparrow
Chipping Sparrow
Enjoy the fall,
Michelle Talbott
