From about 3:00 to 6:00 this evening the bird activity really picked up in our
yard stream and in the shrubs around the yard. I counted 28 species and 26 of
those were from my window. Six warbler species were either in the stream or
foraging in the flowers of the Crepe Myrtle bushes. There were 2 Bay-breasted,
6 Tennessees, 2 Blackburnians, 2 Chestnut-sided, 1 Yellow-throated Warbler and
a Northern Parula. Also foraging were 15 Cedar Waxwings, 2 Yellow-throated
Vireos a Red-eyed Vireo, 2 Indigo Buntings, 2 Brown Thrashers, 3 Eastern
Towhees, a Scarlet Tanager, an Eastern Wood Pewee, an Eastern Phoebe and an
unknown Empid.
