[cobirds] Tempel Grove-Bent Co. Hooded Warbler and Summer Tanager

Yesterday I drove to Tempel Grove, northwest of Lamar, to see what this migrant trap might be holding.  The strong, gusty winds were a pain.  I found a female Hooded Warbler and a first year Summer Tanager along with the more common Warbling Vireo(s), Swainson's Thrush, Yellow and Yellow-rumped Warblers---very slow for migration at this time of year in this hotspot.  The many resident Gray Catbirds provided the most action.  I did get photos of the Summer Tanager that I have posted on my Birds and Nature blog
