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.
