I want to describe the bird we saw at Highbanks that is a possible Brewster's. Gold patch on top of head, black eye line like a blue-winged, white under chin, then a yellow breast but white underneath, grayish-green back, gray wings had two white bars--not yellow. It looked a lot like what Sibley calls a Brewster's 1st generation adult male--except this bird had white wingbars. (The Sibley Guide to Birds, p. 428) It was close to the trail where it "dips"--and then flew further down the ravine. Hope someone else sees it.
Also saw a Kentucky just up the hill after the dip, plus many of the birds previously noted.
