outer tail feathers, and it appeared to be an adult. I didn’t have a 
scope, so I can’t be sure about that, but it was still a brilliant yellow 
color on the breast. There were a smattering of warblers, such as wilson’s, 
black and white, bay breasted, nashville,  oven bird, and juvenile common 
yellowthroateds.

Westwood is at 8300 W. Franklin Ave. in St. Louis Park, 55426.
One access is on Hwy 394 to Texas Ave. So., turn west on Franklin to the 
first stop sign. A half block on Franklin gets you into the nature center.
