You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey

You're as sweet as strawberry wine

You're as warm as a glass of brandy

And honey, I stay stoned on your love all the time

Sunrise from Cades Cove in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Unfortunately, this loop road is not opened until the actual sunrise, so this was the first pull-out where I thought I might capture a compelling image before the sun was too high in the sky.

Wishing you a great day - and weekend. Be safe and God bless. :)

First time I've had the opportunity to photograph this cute little bird. Take at the Monte Sano State Park in Huntsville Alabama.

Lyrics:

Used to spend my nights out in a barroom

Liquor was the only love I've known

But you rescued me from reachin' for the bottom

And brought me back from being too far gone

You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey

You're as sweet as strawberry wine

You're as warm as a glass of brandy

And honey, I stay stoned on your love all the time

I've looked for love in all the same old places

Found the bottom of a bottle's always dry

But when you poured out your heart I didn't waste it

'Cause there's nothing like your love to get me high

You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey

You're as sweet as strawberry wine

You're as warm as a glass of brandy

And honey, I stay stoned on your love all the time

You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey

You're as sweet as strawberry wine

You're as warm as a glass of brandy

And honey, I stay stoned on your love all the time

You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey

Tennessee whiskey

Tennessee whiskey

You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey

Tennessee whiskey

Tennessee whiskey

They are still coming through... seen Saturday in our yard. Glendale, MIssouri

Have not had must time for birding or photography since our return and this is one of the few warblers that I found, feeding among the blossoms. Taken in Whitby, Ontario.

On this same date and from the place last year I posted a Tennessee Warbler as my first subject in my annual fall warbler hunt.

Always a challenging warbler to find and shoot - here is one in majestic fall plumage!

Lifer #66 2020

A more apt name for this species might be the "Coffee Warbler" since it often over-winters in coffee plantations in Latin America

Spring in Great Smoky Mountains National Park brings brilliant colors, with deep green forests and bright pink and white mountain laurel.

As we celebrate Earth Day, I thought this image captured simply the beauty of nature without the distractions of man.

Visit GSMNP in the next few months to see for yourself!

Hey! Over here!

I have been missing a lot of warbler opportunities lately. I need all the help I can get.
