On Oct 31 at 3:00 pm , Jimi and I found a MOURNING WARBLER on the back trail at Cove Lake State Park in Caryville, TN. The bird was feeding in the privet hedges/thickets in a low swampy area along a ditch. We obtained good looks from about 10-15 ft. away .The bird still had a nice light colored grey hood-with yellow underparts and narrow continuing eye ring. This is the first fall Mourning Warbler and latest date I have observed one at Cove Lake. We returned on 11-1 am to see if the bird was still present, but did not find it. We did see several Brown Creepers and RUSTY BLACKBIRDS (11) today.
