Hello!

I just returned from a morning of birding the first part of the pet trail  at
Highbanks.  I arrived around 9 AM and was immediately greeted in the  area
just beyond the water fountain by a "swarm" of warblers and other  birds.  I
continued on along the muddy path to the north through a wooded  section to where
it crosses over a small culverted stream where I encountered a  second
"swarm".  There were so many birds that there were times when I  could not decide
which ones to try to look at through the binoculars.   The following is a list
of the birds that I was able to observe and  hear:

Blackpoll Warbler
Northern Parula-3
Chestnut-Sided Warbler-numerous
Yellow-Rumped Warbler-numerous
Yellow Warbler
Hooded Warbler
Black-Throated Green Warbler-a few
Black-Throated Blue Warbler
Cape May Warbler
Tennessee Warbler-a few
Bay-Breasted Warbler
Blackburnian Warbler-a few
Common Yellowthroat-a few singing on territory
Ovenbird-2
Nashville Warbler-several
Palm Warbler
Magnolia Warbler-2

Wood Thrush-heard 3 or 4
Swainson's Thrush
Veery
Rose-Breasted Grosbeak-several with a pair at the Nature Center  feeders
Indigo Bunting-2
Least Flycatcher-2
Solitary Vireo
Warbling Vireo
Red-Eyed Vireo-a few
Summer Tanager
Baltimore Oriole
House Wren-several
Scarlet Tanager
