Area Birders,
This morning my wife and I birded Horn Mountain again here in Buchanan Co. We 
found our first SCARLET TANAGERS of the season at 9:17. A brightly colored male 
flew into a tree top just over our heads. I took a quick  photo before it flew 
to another tree. Shortly after we heard two more tanagers. As we were listening 
to them I heard the distinct bell like song of the first WOOD THRUSH of the 
season. We were also listening for the song of the Chestnut-sided Warbler, 
which we didn't find, but we did find another CERULEAN WARBLER in the trees 
along the roadside. Last year we recorded the first Chestnut-sided here in 
Buchanan on May 5.
Enjoy the birds,

Roger Mayhorn
Compton Mountain
Buchanan County
