Ann Mitchell & I were at the Hawthorns from 7:30 to 10:30am. We missed the
Philadelphia Vireos and Cape May Warbler, much to Ann's disappointment, and the
Magnolia Warblers, but we did hear and see CANADA WARBLER and see
YELLOW-BELLIED FLYCATCHER and BAY-BREASTED WARBLER in the middle and hear (and
Ann saw) WILSON'S WARBLER in the south central hawthorns. We also heard a WOOD
THRUSH and saw a BROWN THRASHER among others.
The Yellow-bellied Flycatcher was silent and briefly seen but beautiful and
easy to ID: all yellowish green with more green above and more yellow below and
no gray/white anywhere nor any contrast at edges of throat. Even the complete
eye-ring and double wingbars were yellow instead of white.
