I heard and finally saw a Connecticut Warbler at Veterans Park in Richfield about 8am (directions below), and then heard one on the Bluff Trail west of the Old Cedar Avenue bridge about 9:30. Generally, aside from Tennessee Warblers, there were not many passage migrants left (Alder FC, Blackpoll, Olive-sided FC, etc.)
Following the walking path (not the outer, bike path) about 400 yards from it's start on 11th Ave just north of 66th (the far SE corner of Veterans park), there's a bench dedicated to "Bud" Kobs. I was sitting on the bench when I finally saw the warbler, which had been singing persistently but secretive. The one on the Bluff Trail sang a few times, but I couldn't see it. I didn't record the distance west from the parking lot, but there is a pipe in the path marked with red ribbons.
