Saturday, Sept. 16, didn't offer very many migrants. Highlight of my day 
birding around home at Hampton, Carter Co., TN, was a pair of Brown Thrashers.
What a difference a day made!

On Sunday, Sept. 17, I had 11 species of warbler, five of them new for me 
this fall migration. Some other birds also made their first fall appearance. 
Below are the highlights. The new fall birds are in all caps.

Tennessee Warbler, Chestnut-sided Warbler, Magnolia Warbler, Black-throated 
Green Warbler, BLACKBURNIAN WARBLER, PALM WARBLER, PRAIRIE WARBLER, 
Bay-breasted Warbler, WORM-EATING WARBLER, WILSON'S WARBLER and Hooded Warbler.

Other observations included RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET, Common Nighthawk, Belted 
Kingfisher, Broad-winged Hawk, Ruby-throated Hummingbird, ROSE-BREASTED 
GROSBEAK, Yellow-billed Cuckoo, Wood Thrush, Gray Catbird, Brown Thrasher, 
Red-eyed 
Vireo, Eastern Wood-Pewee, Indigo Buntings (adult feeding begging young), House 
Wren, Carolina Wren, Eastern Bluebird, Red-bellied Woodpecker, COMMON RAVEN, 
American Crow and Blue Jay.

I also had plenty of the regular feeder birds present. Each time a wave of 
warblers came through, the Carolina Chickadees and Tufted Titmice were also 
present.
