And like Tommy and Virginia, things are slowly picking up in our
yard here on Black Oak Ridge in west Knox Co.  Or maybe it's just
that a male CERULEAN WARBLER can make it feel that way.  :-)
Definitely the best day so far for warblers and vireos but still
slow overall with lots of birds that have not yet arrived.
