Echoing Doug Hardy's report of a significant warbler wave on Saturday, I 
had the following in a frustratingly short 20 minutes around my house in 
Norwich.  I was constrained for time, so couldn't chase down and ID the 
majority of birds, which were moving very rapidly through the deciduous 
canopy.  I probably ID'd only 20-25% of the birds present.

Highlights:

Location:     91 Spring Pond Road
Observation date:     8/30/08
Number of species:     17

Eastern Wood-Pewee     4
Blue-headed Vireo     2
Red-eyed Vireo     5
House Wren     1
Yellow Warbler     1
Chestnut-sided Warbler     2
Magnolia Warbler     1
Black-throated Blue Warbler     1
Yellow-rumped Warbler (Myrtle)     1

Pine Warbler     1

Yesterday afternoon, I had a great close-up views of 6 Red-eyed Vireos feeding on berries of an alternate-leaved dogwood at my house.
