Today was a gorgeous day, so I went to the park! Yesterday I walked through with no binoculars or camera and saw 2 American redstarts, so I was hoping to find them again today.
The day started well with this pretty black and white warbler, who stayed with me for quite some time.

This yellow warbler however was much more elusive. I'm glad for the brief glimpse I got!

While I was welcoming the warblers back this hummingbird came by! It didn't stay long, but I was thrilled to see it.

There are flickers again too!

I saw several waterthrushes, I believe at least one Louisiana and at least one northern. But I am not great at telling them apart.

Redstart! I did see a male also, but no pictures.

While I was at the oven this hawk came by and landed briefly before zooming off. It seems like a juvie that's learning how to hunt.

Kingbirds! There were 3 or 4 of them, hiding.

This oriole looks like it has blood on its face and beak. I hope it's okay.

There were 2 Carolina wrens at the oven, one singing and one calling, hanging around each other. I saw them first up in a tree and then later down in the brush. What a treat!

Another waterthrush. One at azalea pond, one along the streamlet, one at the upper lobe. It really seemed like 2 along the streamlet, but I can't say for sure.
