Stopped as Castellow this morning and found a few year birds. I hung out at the butterfly garden area for a while and saw a Blue-headed Vireo, Red-eyed Vireo and White-eyed Vireo. I also saw a few warblers but it was really difficult to observe anything due to the thick foliage.


I walked the trail in the hammock and saw a Veery, Ovenbird, Swainson's Thrush, White-eyed Vireo, Red-eyed Vireo and a possible Male Black-chinned Hummer. It was chasing around some Gnatcatchers and I never saw any flash of red on the throat. I'm not going to say it was as Black-chinned, but it really made me look hard at the bird. If your there be sure to check the hummers close
