This afternoon at Walker Springs Park in west Knox County I heard and saw a 
White Eyed Vireo and a Red Eyed Vireo. There were probably 2 red eyed vireos 
as I heard singing in different parts of the park.  Also heard Blue Gray 
Gnatcatchers.  A small flock of Cedar Waxwings was the first I've seen in a 
while.  The hawks put on a show.  A very vocal Red-Shouldered sounded off 
while another circled some distance away.  Some time later both 
Red-Shoulders were in the air, though not close together, when a Cooper's 
came out of nowhere and flew at one of them.  It was almost as large as the 
Red-Shouldered.  I've never seen that behavior before.
