Peter:
An amazing morning. With 13 sps of warblers, my day was made. First time this year, I spent ±1 hr just in the Vale, surrounded by warblers, orioles, Great Crested Flycatchers, Catbirds, Swamp Sparrows.
Midwood was also another warbler heaven, being Magnolia & Prairie the best. Also there BT Blues. And of course, everywhere you were looking, Myrtles. Ovenbirds & RCKIs in great numbers. The final surprise was 1 lonely Field Sparrow seen near the Rose Garden. Great Day!!
