May 15
  Clear with strong W. wind. A white frost at daybreak but
middle of the day warm. Ther. 38 degrees - 72 degrees
  Tennessee Warbler. A male in elms oaks and blossoming apple trees
near the house and at the foot of the lane. He sang freely from
6 to 8 A.M. and occasionally through the entire forenoon. Although
restless he was very tame and repeatedly I got within a few
yards of him but he seldom remained for more than a
few minutes in the same tree. In movements and general
behavior he exactly resembled a Nashville Warbler. He fed chiefly
at the ends of the branches probing among the terminal buds
and unfolding leaves with his sharp bill, often hanging head
downward and working upward like a Titmouse. He was
alone most of the time but occasionally with or very near
Usnea  Warblers. His song was less shrill and incisive than
usual. It might, indeed, have been mistaken for a Nashville
Warbler's but for the measured pitchee-pitchee--pitchee pitchee
notes formed the prelude and which are so
characteristic of the Tennessee Warbler.
Arrival
  Besides the Tennessee Warbler I noted nothing new
and but few birds which were obviously north-bound
migrants.
