singing Kentuckies, Orange Co., NC



Yesterday, on my way back home from Orange Grove Rd. precinct where I vote,
I stopped on a deserted stretch of Borland Rd. between Orange Grove and
Dodson's Crossroads -- this is a very short stretch of road but is wooded on
both sides and has no houses. When I thought I heard singing Kentuckies --
at least 2 -- I bailed out of my car. Also heard a hooded warbler, N.
parula, redstart (saw it), b-g gnatcatcher, a constantly calling summer
tanager, wood thrushes and more. This morning I went back there on my way to
work and heard Kentuckies again on both sides of the road and hooded warbler
on the north side.
If others would like to check out this spot, the Kentuckies were nearer the
Orange Grove end than the Dodson's end -- say 150 yards east of Orange
Grove. Please let me know privately if you hear what I heard at this spot.
