I heard my first White-eyed Vireo at my home in Birchwood (Hamilton County) on
Tuesday morning, April 3. Later in the afternoon, I saw a small group of Vesper
Sparrows at the Sculpture Fields in Chattanooga (Hamilton County). This species
was a life bird species for me. Today, April 4, I had my first Ruby-throated
Hummingbird at home – a male. I also observed a first Barn Swallow for the year
today on Blythe Ferry Lane in Birchwood (Meigs County).
