A few warblers today on the hill - more Tennessees including one that flew into the side of the house and knocked herself out but recovered after we moved her to the shade and she rested a few minutes, two immature Bay-breasted, one Nashville, and a Palm exactly like the one Sibley shows as being of the dark Western race - dark overall except for the yellow under the tail. Lots of Flickers, several Rose-breasted Grosbeaks, and a Cooper's Hawk added to our enjoyment. But the bird of the day was a gorgeous Red-breasted Nuthatch that made numerous trips to the feeders from 4:30 in the afternoon until almost dark. Second one ever in our yard and first one since October 12, 2004.
