This morning I rode my bike to the McMurry Natural Area and was not disapointed. At the parking lot there was a nice flock of migrants moving through some cottonwoods, crack willows, boxelders and siberian elms. There was a female Blackpoll Warbler on the south side of the parking lot working its way west. There was also a Verry and a male American Redstart in the same area with about 10 Yellow-rumped Warblers and 2 Swainson's Thrushes, maybe the Redstart is the same bird that was there a couple of days ago spotted by Aran Meyer.
Also seen in the vicinity was a Gray Catbird, Plumbeous Vireo, Northern Waterthrush, Yellow Warbler, Ruby Crowned Kinglet, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher and 2 flycatchers. I thought that one of the flycatchers looked good for Dusky and the other seemed to be a Least but I am uncertain on these ids. Oh and there was also a Broad-winged Hawk just west of the Parking lot calling and flying around. On my ride to the river there were about 100 from what I saw mostly Chipping Sparrows.
