Notes: 13 species of warblers. The Empid was seen again today by many
observers, several of which
heard it vocalize.  After considerable audio review of the Stokes CD, Jeff
confirmed that he had indeed heard the Alder call notes as suspected while
at the mountain.  The bird was seen on the road about .1 miles past the
stairs to Little Kmt.    As Giff posted yesterday, the bird was seen again
at eye level.
 It was clearly a Traill's type, based on color, size, bill and primary
projection. The bird called several times.  I assume any observers will
write up their observations for the records committee.
