I noted a total of thirteen warbler species this week in Birchwood. Twelve of
the thirteen species were seen on my property in Birchwood (Hamilton County).
Two Pine Warblers were seen on my property and three more Pine Warblers and a
Palm Warbler were seen at Hiwassee Wildlife Refuge at Birchwood in Meigs
County. One Magnolia Warbler was observed at the Cherokee Removal Memorial
Park, also in Meigs County. A total of 26 warblers were located during the
week. Magnolia Warblers were the most often seen; there were six. Two first-of-
the- year warblers were seen today, both on my property. They were a
Golden-winged Warbler and a Tennessee Warbler.
