At approximately 8:25 a.m. this morning we had the most amazing 10
minutes in our yard birding experience.  In the oak tree just behind my
wife's workshop there must have been a hatch of especially delicious
insects.  In an area about 15' x 15' in that tree we saw these birds:

Warblers: Black-throated Green, Chestnut-sided, Magnolia, Pine, Black &
White, Golden-winged, Orange-crowned, Tennessee.

Tanagers: Summer and Scarlet

Flycatchers: Least

Our resident Indigo Bunting, Bluebirds, Chickadees, Titmouse, and
Nuthatch also came to feed and Starlings and Bluejays came to
investigate.  

We'd already had the Blue-winged Warbler earlier in the morning, so it
has been a good day already.
