Just a light drizzle at worst for most of the morning I was out altho steady rain was settling in later.
Not a lot of birds but I was very happy to hear a Kentucky Warbler (FOY) in an area I don’t usually see them but not terribly far from where they have bred In the past. It only sang a few times and I couldn’t spot it as it was in a ways from the trail. then it started raining harder and I didn’t hear it again. I only found 2 breeding pairs last year in the Taylor Ochs area whereas before all the clearing, I had anywhere from 2 to 4 pairs breeding lower down so it will be interesting to see what happens this spring.
Also heard a N Waterthrush a couple times but could not spot it. Got great looks at a Magnolia that was singing.
Saw or heard 4 vireos: Warbling, Blue-headed, RE & WE. Found one adult White-crowned in a small group of White-throateds. Saw a pair of Scarlet Tanagers foraging together, the first female I’ve seen. And 2 Red-bellied WPs copulated on a branch.
Saw my first empid sp—silent of course.
