Sounds GREAT! The list here in the marsh and savanna-lands just a couple of miles south of that location is quite long, too. 92 for the year; 15 warblers.
If you go to Carlos, be aware that the bridge from Forest Lake going west on Broadway/Hwy 83/Hwy 18 has been taken down and is being rebuilt this summer. The exits are sometimes open, or not... To go west on Hwy 18, you need to take the "new" exit for 11th street, which is SOUTH of the usual Forest Lake exit. Go west across the new bridge that was built to accommodate traffic during construction, then take a right just over the bridge, and that will lead you north to Hwy 18. Go west on 18 about 4-5 miles to Carlos. Another way to get to Carlos near Forest Lake is to take the Lexington Ave Exit from 35W and go north to Hwy 18 going east, but that seems longer and the 2-lane road is heavily used, especially at rush hour times.

Also in the area were Blue-Winged Warbler, Mourning Warbler, Black-Billed Cuckoo & Yellow-Billed Cuckoo (Two YBs heard only.) There is a small parking area where the 2 roads meet.
