Sorry for the late entry.  On 10-20-08 while looking through my glass enclosed 
den, I saw a small bird at the bird bath, located on a rock arrangement on  the 
ground. It was walking around the edge of the bath.  I was not really not 
concentrating but I was suddenly jarred by a really bold white unbroken eye 
ring on a gray head and a yellowish belly.  I still couldn't believe what I was 
seeing and ran for the bird book.  When I got back it was walking around on the 
ground pecking around, then suddenly flew into a lilac bush and disappeared.

In a lifetime of birding, suddenly I had a "Connecticut Warbler", come to me 
and say, "OK, here I am". A LIFE BIRD FOR ME !!

I know this one is fairly common to others on migration, but for some reason it 
had eluded  me.
