In addition to the usual yard birds (Grey Catbird, Northern Cardinal,
Carolina Chickadee, White-breasted Nuthatch, Mourning Doves, American
Goldfinch, and Red-bellied Woodpecker), I saw a Downy Woodpecker for the
first time in a while.
Then I noticed a warbler in the trees in the back. There were American
Redstarts (imm. and adult), Black-throated Green Warbler,
Black-and-white Warbler, and perhaps a Tennessee Warbler. There may have
been others, but it was difficult due to the light rain. The appeared to
be feeding on insects and getting out of the rain in the pear, oak, and
chestnut trees. There is a long hedge of beech trees that they may have
been using for cover from the rain. Previously, I had only seen
Yellow-rumped Warblers in the yard so it was a really, REALLY, good day.
