Subject:      Cochran Shoals Report, 9-1-09

I lucked out and got an unexpected free morning today. . . so, naturally I spent it looking for
birds.  I started at Henderson Park, where I ran into Hugh Garrett.  We found the property eerily
silent. . . so after a bit, I decided to change locales (I'm sure Hugh bagged double digit warblers
soon after I left ;)

I decided to check Cochran Shoals (Chattahoochee NRA) to see if yesterday's good warbler activity
continued.  It was a tough morning for observation - windy, drizzly, and dark. . .  And I know
several warblers got away from me.  Nonetheless, I managed to find a few (7 warbler species).

10:15am-11:30pm
Highlights:

Chestnut-sided warbler, 2
Pine warbler, 3
Black and white warbler, 4
American redstart, 2
Common yellowthroat, 3
Canada warbler, 1 (along the Philly Vireo  trail, same as yesterday)
Hooded warbler, 3

Scarlet tanager, 1

The birds were there, I just didn't have much time.   I'm confident a more intensive effort would
have produced better results.
