Hi Peter,

we had a fantastic day!  I think it was the right call extending the walks 2 more weeks.

The 'magic' tree by the picnic tables, when you enter by Vanderbilt, was covered in warblers, highlight being two Cape Mays, we didn't know where to look first.   It was also a great sparrow day, we had white-crowned, great looks at two lincoln's, swamp and white-throated.   The south side of the park was the best but the 2 thrashers continue up on Lookout and there was reasonable activity up there as well.

Here is a pic of the Lincoln's. 

Best,
Bobbi
