I’ve refound this bird, it’s been following me (or me it) between markers 12 and 21. (though never getting as far west as 21). Interesting that 21 is not on the park website map—but it’s between 12 and the road. It sings both the typical Blue-winged and golden-winged songs but in a just-slightly “off” tone for either, as Linda alluded to. Got a decent look that matched her description perfectly.
Heard both Hooded and Cerulean warblers, but no Summer Tanager for me or the several birders I ran into.
