Saturday May 2nd was pretty nice, warm, partially cloudy meaning a lot of sunshine. We had lunch on the deck and sitting there with the binoculars scanning the tree's and bushes it was obvious that a load of warblers had arrived. Lot's of Myrtle's and a Prairie Warbler right in the prime spot on my waterfall. After lunch I set up the blind and went and sat in it. Crap it was hot in there. Not much action at all until Mr's Cardinal came down for a bathe. She looks like one of those Angry Birds from the computer game. She kept me amused while I was waiting for the warblers to come back.

I didn't have to wait too long after Mr's Cardinal left before the Prairie Warbler came back, there were two as I could see one in the bush above the waterfall while the first was bathing. Then the action heated up with the arrival of the first of several Myrtle Warbler's.
