My wife and I did some hiking this morning down near Old Man's cave.  The
birding theme of the hike ended up being "Oh, there's another Red-breasted
Nuthatch."  We double-backed on our hike but I'm pretty certain we had at
least 10 nuthatches in a 2-mile stretch of trail.  At one point, I also
thought I had a distant Purple Finch singing but could not track the culprit
down again.

There was also signifcant migrant passerine activity along the creek from
Old Man's Cave to Cedar Falls.  Black-throated Green Warblers were the most
numerous warbler species and some were still singing.
