A few notes on recent observations in west Knox Co, TN (unless noted) over 
the last few days.  Only one non-yellow-rumped warbler so far.

Green Heron - 1 flyover at Pellissippi State Campus, 9 April 2013

Red-eyed Vireo - 1 singing in our woods on 10 April that I eventually 
tracked down visually after 15+ min of searching interupted by a Cooper's 
Hawk strafing.  Ties early arrival date for our yardlist.

Red-breasted Nuthatch - 1 at our feeders on 31 March and again on 3 April.  
This species showed up here in late Sept but only infrequently seen at the 
feeders throughout the winter.

Brown Creeper - 1 in our woods on 3 April, new late date for our yardlist

Blue-gray Gnatcatcher - about 6 pairs on territory along the new, paved 
trail connecting Haw Ridge Park and the Melton Hill Greenway in Anderson Co
on 6 April.  Finally got my first at home on 10 April.

Common Yellowthroat - 1 singing male in the retention pond at the office 
on 10 April
