Hi All:
Sometimes it pays to stay home.  3 yard firsts in the last 16 hrs.  Caught 3
flyover
COMMON SNIPE ( from  the hammock ), calling as they passed.  Listened to a
CD to confirm- Yesss!  This am, heard the familiar " toot, toot " of
RED-BREASTED NUTHATCH. Not much later, as we sat along our woodland edge, my
husband " the non-birder " remarked- " a warbler just landed right in front
of us."  It sure was, a TENNESSEE in beautiful clean plummage, gray cap,
black eye-line, white supercilium, clean white underparts and olive/yellow
tinged upper.  A beautiful bird.  Also 3 Broadwings soaring exceptional
naked eye view right over the yard.
