The last three days have had a large influx of birds in the park with over 80 species being seen, including 18 species of warblers. Tonight I found at least 7 different Golden-winged Warblers, 1 Brewster Hybrid and 5 different Black-throated Green Warblers at different areas of the park. Philadelphia, Blue-headed, Yellow-throated and Warbling Vireos have been seen along with Great Crested, Least and Olive-sided Flycatchers. Other migrants have included Eastern Towhee, Lincoln's Sparrows, Brown Thrasher, Swainson's, Hermit and Gray-cheeked Thrush and many Blue-gray Gnatcatchers. Our resident Sora and Virginia Rails are back along with 4-5 Black-crowned Night-herons and Green Herons.
