Birding has been pretty much abysmal in our west Knox Co yard this
spring but showing a few signs of life over the weekend and Monday
morning (26 April) has been the best day yet (but still slow relative
to past years).  FINALLY had our first Ruby-throated Hummingbird on
Saturday (24 April)

Monday, 26 April in the backyard:
Baltimore Oriole, 1 female, FOY
Rose-breasted Grosbeak, 1 singing male (FOY for yard)
Blue-headed Vireo, 1
(Myrtle) Yellow-rumped Warbler, 3-4
Hooded Warbler, 1 singing male
CERULEAN WARBLER, 2 males doing their version of "Dueling Banjos", FOY

Then a MERLIN buzzed through and shut things down signaling that it
was time to get to work.
