Yesterday's frontal passage apparently brought with it the long sought after
thrushes. I had 15 Swainson's and 2 Gray-cheeked in a short walk on Grassy
Branch Road near the gap, here in Pittman Center. At a friends house near
there, I found yet another GWWA, Bay-breasted, Cape May, N. Parula, Am.
Redstart, Black-throated Green, and Tennessee warblers, 20+ Scarlet Tanagers, 5
Summer Tanager (3 adult males).
Closer to home at the foot of the ridge, Tennessee, Blackburnian,
Chestnut-sided, Am. Redstart warblers, White-eyed Vireo, Rose-breasted
Grosbeak. Great day of birding locally.
I surpassed my personal goal of getting 180 species in Sevier County this year,
am now at 181, and aiming higher!
