Hi Peter,
A beautiful day, with about 60 people, and lots of bird action, especially in the northern end of the park. We ended up with 70 species, including 20 warbler species (unfortunately a few heard only or seen by only a few).
Highlights were probably the abundance of Cape Mays, close and personal time with an Ovenbird, and lots more.

Here's the list.

Best regards,
Tom
