This morning I could hardly see any birds for all the
TOWNSEND'S WARBLERS in the way.  After awhile, I stopped
looking up and just concentrated on movement in the 
undergrowth--which still turned out to be Townsend's.  
(I think this is what's known as a "High Class Problem".)

In the neighborhood but not seen on dogwalk:

TURKEY VULTURE   1  (1, 5/1)
