Visited Sharp's Ridge in Knoxville Sunday morning w/ my mother from 8:15 - 10:35am. It was slow at first but we ended up w/ some nice birds including 2 mixed flocks. The highlight was a Blue-Winged Warbler. Robinson's Annotated Checklist book shows this species as departed by late September so I guess it was running a little late. Also late was a Yellow-Throated Vireo which the book shows departing by mid-September.
