The year's first Golden-winged Warbler appeared this morning (Sep 11  
2006) in our yard in the form of a gorgeous and cooperative male.   
His golden crown and wing patch were glowing; his black throat and  
cheek patches were crisp.  Between my having spent so much time out  
west in recent decades, and this species' population declines, this  
bird has become a rare treat for me.  He brings the tally of warblers  
I've found in Tennessee this year up to 36 species (somehow I missed  
Orange-crowned in the spring; hopefully I'll find one later this fall).

The first Canada Warbler of the autumn also put in an appearance this  
morning, a handsome bird, too.
