I took a trip to Shimek S.F. and Lacey Keosauqua S.P. The first stop was at the Argyle junkyard to look for Bewicks W. which didn't show up. But I did get great looks at a male Hooded Warbler that was very vocal and territorial. At the Croton Unit in Shimek, Donnelson Unit, and Lick Creek Unit I found the following birds: Worm-eating Warbler 1 (Thanks Jim Fuller and Jim Scheib for directions) Yellow-breasted Chat 3- Croton Unit Kentucky Warbler 11- Croton, Donnelson, Lick Creek, Lacey K. White-eyed Vireos 12- Croton and Donnelson Units Pine Warbler 1- Donnelson Unit (at the 1st pull-off on side of road) L.Waterthrush 4 Yellow-throated Warbler 8 Olive-sided Flycatcher 1 Mockingbird 1- seen by Jim fuller and Jim Scheib-I missed this one! Bobwhite Quail 4
