Birds reported:
Long-tailed Jaeger
MacGillivray's Warbler
Mourning Warbler
Wilson's Warbler
Bob Zaremba called this morning and reported that the adult Long-tailed
Jaeger is still at Lake Hartwell. To get there take I85 to Hartwell, Ga in
Hart County and go east on US 29. Look for the Long Point Recreation Area.
Go to the end of the point and look south over the lake toward the dam
(DeLorme pg 23:B8). The bird was found yesterday by Jim Flynn and Earl
Horn.

At Kennesaw Mountain in Cobb County yesterday Giff Beaton and Mark Davis
found a MacGillivray's Warbler and Mourning Warbler. The MacGillivray's
Warbler was seen late yesterday. This is only Georgia's 3rd record. The
Mourning Warbler was seen briefly and not found again. The MacGillivray's
was seen near the top of the mountain where the trail crosses the road.
There is a bench here and the bird was seen in the brush in front of the
bench. It was working it's way down the trail and then back to that brush.
Sitting on the bench and waiting for the bird to work back to that brush
seemed to be the best bet. A Wilson's Warbler was seen lower on the
mountain yesterday but has not been seen again.
