I enjoyed a great look at a male Canada Warbler on Wednesday, May 2, at home in Hampton, Carter Co., TN.
Other birds present included Rose-breasted Grosbeaks, Indigo Buntings, Gray Catbirds and House Wrens. The female Ruby-throated Hummingbirds have also joined the males at the feeders.
I also observed one of those aggravating treetop warbler flocks. I confirmed a few Yellow-rumped Warblers and needed a better look to also confirm a Blackpoll Warbler. Between 15 to 20 warblers flew into tall treetops with the sun right behind them, and that was the end of that.
I prefer those warblers that come down lower, like the Canada Warbler. Bryan Stevens Hampton, TN ________________________________________________________________________AOL now offers free email to everyone. Find out more about what's free from AOL at AOL.com.
