As soon as the apple blossom comes out, the Tennessee Warblers appear. Same every year. In a week or so they will continue north.

The Tennessee Theater opened in 1928. Its Spanish-Moorish interior is richly decorated in an opulent fashion, with French, Italian, and Asian influences. It was restored in 2003-2005, and is in use nearly every week. The acoustics are fantastic, and in addition to the Knoxville Symphony, numerous shows and musical groups perform there every year. It's a pretty cool venue.

In June of 1993 I made a trip out to Colorado to scout out a place to live for my upcoming job transfer. I decided to drive from my home in Apple Valley, CA to Colorado Springs railfanning along the way. One place I stopped was the Craig Branch and then Tennessee Pass. A few days before I took this photo I had photographed the EMD SD70M Demo units on a loaded coal train in Craig and followed it to Denver. I never expected to see them on Tennessee Pass a few days later. Yet here they are ar Pando climbing the grade. This is the first of 4 shots.
On a splendid late spring afternoon an empty rail train symboled W018-12 makes its way north near MP 275.9 on CSXT's KD Sub (ex Louisville and Nashville mainline) crossing the Tennessee River on the 1051 ft. long camel back truss bridge built in 1934 and modified and rebuilt in 1966.
A nice looking slug set is in charge with mother unit CSXT 6409 (EMD GP40-2 blt. Jan. 1978 as CO 4271 in Chessie System paint) and slug CSXT 2226 (rebuilt from an EMD GP30 originally blt. Oct. 1962 as BO 6909). Alas since the date of this photo the slug has been sold to LTEX with a future unknown.
At the time I was on business to Atlanta and took the opportunity to railfan in a part of the world I'd never visited before. It was much different than Alaska but certainly had its own special appeal...

Back from my shot Tennessee trip. What a beautiful state. While there I was able to hook up with Ian. He let borrow his 50mm 1.4G and his 14-24mm (more on this lens later). This shot was taken in the moring while testing out the 1.4G. I must say this lens is a lot better than the 50mm 1.4D. It focuses really, slow so for kids or fast moving object it might not be ideal but as far as image quality wide open it is much better. No specially post processing on this image. A little curve adjustment and slight WB tweak.

Tennessee Warbler coming for a drink at a songbird drip site at the South Padre Birding and Nature Center.
According to Audubon's field guide: This bird is found in Tennessee only briefly, during spring and fall migration; but there is no point in giving it a more descriptive name, because the bird itself is nondescript. The male makes up for his plain appearance with a strident staccato song, surprisingly loud for the size of the bird. Nesting in northern forests, the Tennessee Warbler goes through population cycles: it often becomes very numerous during population explosions of the spruce budworm, a favored food. I personally have encountered this species only once on our property. This one was looking for insects on the blooming century plant.

After Rio Grande days, a visit was made in SP days to Tennessee Pass in 1996. Another coal drag lugs itself into the tunnel at the summit with more modern AC4400s, compared to Tunnel Motor days.

A northbound hopper train rolls across the Tennessee River and will soon enter West Knoxville Yard on the CSX KD Sub.
A bonus Tennessee Warbler foraging in the same area as the Hooded Warbler. Don't you love when that happens?
