Yard List

Here's a Warbling Vireo in my yard in Spalding County Oct, 2006. 
 
Warbling Vireos are a rare if not very rare migrant in GA.  I remember hearing a few years ago that one had never even been photographed in GA which is surprising, especially if still true.
 
There are no breeding records.  However, I did have a bird in Rabun County (GA mountains) in June of 2002 and July of 2003 which would be the first reports of the bird occuring in summer.
 
I live too far away to bird the mountains, but I'm sure a few summer in north GA.
 
I usually only see a couple migrating a year.  This is the second one I've had in the yard.  I had one this spring at the Conyers Horse Park.  That and the Chattahoochee River Cochran Shoals Unit would be two of the better locations to check for this species.
