An hour watching and waiting looking at the bird pool on the south side of the bridge did provide nice birds. Heading the WARBLER array, an early BLACKPOLL WARBLER bathe in the running water. That was the precursor to a welcomed PRAIRIE WARBLER that landed on the rock farther back. Other bathing warblers: NORTHERN PARULA,YELLOW,YELLOW RUMPED,BLACK AND WHITE & NORTHERN WATERTHRUSH.
The WARBLERS had company. I saw also WARBLING VIREO,RUBY CROWNED KINGLET,CEDAR WAXWING ( that kept chasing away the Yellow WARBLER) ànd RED WINGED BLACKBIRD.
So a good start to begin May birding in my " catchup" to spring warblers.
