David Hedeen reports from Cedartown, Polk County on Wednesday, May 3. Two
Warbling Vireos were feeding in willows at a small retention pond in the
parking lot of an abandoned WalMart north of the heart of town on US 27. (On
the opposite side of US 27 is a new WalMart SuperCenter.) [DeLorme p. 18
F-4] Hard to find species, rare migrant to Georgia seen a few days ago, but
possibly still there
Other species observed at the pond that morning included two Orchard
Orioles, two Yellow Warblers, a Common Yellowthroat, and a Sora silently
standing in the open on the shore of the pond. Bobwhite (heard but not
seen...but not a mimic, either), Solitary Sandpiper (which was seen later in
the larger retention pond beside the SuperCenter parking lot),
Yellow-breasted Chat, American Redstart, Yellow-rumped Warbler, Blue-Gray
Gnatcatcher, Indigo Bunting, and Blue Grosbeak.
