I drove through Old Highway 63 in Campbell County, TN this morning
en route to an apt in Scott County. At my first pull-off along Cove
Creek near Caryville I heard a LOUISIANA WATERTHRUSH singing! It is still
a thrill after all these years to hear my first Spring Warblers singing,
especially when you pull off the road at appropriate habitat and it seems
as if it sings immediately on cue! Maybe it is a thrill because the
migrants are so reliable, and show up right at the appointed time each
year and are like old friends arriving for a season.
My second singer was YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER (2) today.
In SCOTT COUNTY, I saw 2 BROAD-WINGED HAWKS (in separate areas)
Other Spring firsts in Scott were BLUE-GRAY GNATCATCHER - Blue-Headed
Vireo and 2 more YELLOW-THROATED WARBLERS singing.
I also saw a Tiger Swallowtail . Wildflowers are springing forth-
Hepatica/ Bloodroot
a single Trout Lily- Trillium and Spring Beauty.
