Total guess here but I am thinking that a handful of birds winter in the
Midwest every year but with the polar vortex they have been pushed down to
Tennessee and so on. Again, total speculation. Would be nice to satellite tag a
few of these birds to see where they disperse in the spring and what happens
next winter.

I looked closer at the picture and you are right. What is going on with
some many birds being in Tennessee way out of season?

Looks like a Summer Tanager to me too. Not a Warbler with that honking beak :-)
Great find!
