Hi Peter,

Well, it was a bit slow today...south winds and not many birds stuck in the park. However we were able to dig up 10 species of warblers, finally. The highlight of the trip was probably a Red-tailed Hawk that had taken a squirrel. A bit gruesome but also unusual for us to see....
I'll send a photo later...the circle of life...

The best warbler activity was on Lookout with Prairie and several other species as well as a young Indigo Bunting.

Here's the list.

Tom
