John Haas recently posted on his <a href=\"https:\/\/bashakillbirder.wordpress.com\/#!\/cover\">blog<\/a> that he had several Canada Warblers on the trail there, so this was our target bird for the morning. We walked the road that leads to the trailhead and then nearly a mile of the trail. It was a birdy walk, but as expected at this time of the year, more birds were heard than seen. And photo ops were few and far between. Eastern Towhees, American Goldfinches, and to a lesser degree, Chestnut-sided Warblers and Black-throated Blue Warblers were the most numerous birds heard and seen. About half a mile into the trail, we were beginning to think maybe Canada Warbler was not in the cards for us, when Maria finally located one. We watched it for a good while, and we also relocated it on our way out. What a great bird, and really tough to photograph since it kept its distance and never stopped moving. We all had afternoon plans, so we ended up cutting the hike a little bit short, so we never made it out to the waterfall. We&#8217;ll leave that for next time. In just under 4 hours, we had a total of 32 species.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7261\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7261\" style=\"width: 840px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/?attachment_id=7261\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-7261\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7261 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/070217-CAWA-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"840\" height=\"560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/070217-CAWA-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/070217-CAWA-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/070217-CAWA-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/070217-CAWA-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7261\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">~Our target bird of the day mostly stayed hidden in the shadows.
