Tom and everyone else,

I've got a good mid-identification for you.  My better half and I were in 
Texas a couple of Aprils ago.  We came upon a group of birders straining 
their necks to look at a Cerulean Warbler.  This in and of itself was a 
pretty good migrant to see and all were excited.  Well, Elaine suggests I 
call out an Ivory-billed just for fun.  In my laughter I thought I saw a 
Kirtland's Warbler and mentioned it too her a bit too loudly.  This comment 
drew some unbelieving looks from my fellow birders.  After another spot, it 
turns out he was a Grace's Warbler.  A pretty good find all in all, but not 
a Kirtland's!
