We had a few new arrivals this morning. I heard both a black and white warbler hanging around the yard and a tennessee warbler. It isn't unusual for us to hear black and white warbers throughout the breeding season, and my recollection is that our neighborhood forests have been documented as having a breeding population of black and whites. The tennessee warblers we usually hear, although not always, in large numbers during migration. Their very mechanical, metallic chips are unmistakeable. But, I believe they become must less frequently encountered as we go get later into the breeding season.

We also had some male and female rose breasted grosbeaks on our feeder, and there has been a scarlet tanager hanging around the yard since yesterday morning. I think I may have heard a common yellowthroat yesterday afternoon, but I only heard it once and it was far away.
