Hello, I just realized that this never got sent.  That's what I get for
being in a rush.  This report is from April 30th - last Wednesday.  My
apologies!  Anyone else been up there this week?

Just a quick post, as I've got to head out the door soon to Kentucky.  Had
17 species of warbler on Sharp's Ridge this morning (April 30th) - 9 by
7:30am, then a lull, then the rest by 9:30am.

Warblers:
Tennessee Warbler     2
Nashville Warbler     1 - great look near the fire tower
Chestnut-sided Warbler     1 - great look at one by the orange Verizon tower
Magnolia Warbler     1 - wow!  stunning bird
Cape May Warbler     3
Black-throated Blue Warbler     1
Yellow-rumped Warbler     13
Black-throated Green Warbler     9 - twenty years to the day since I saw my
first, also on Sharp's Ridge
Blackburnian Warbler     1
Pine Warbler     2
Palm Warbler     6
Black-and-white Warbler     1
American Redstart     7 - 3 in field of view at once
Ovenbird     1
Common Yellowthroat     1
Hooded Warbler     6
Yellow-breasted Chat     1

Good looks at Baltimore Oriole, Y-thr Vireo.  Indigo Buntings, Gray Catbirds
and R-b Grosbeaks everywhere, and a Great Blue Heron flying over as I left.


Should be good this week up there -
