With the wildy changeable weather, I tried to get out again today to search for migrants.  I happened to be close to 3-Creeks Park, so I hiked around the bikepath at the northern end of the park, an area called the Oxbow.  It's surrounded by housing and industries, so it acts as a decent migrant trap, and it was working its magic today.  Still mostly temperate migrants, but you take what the sky delivers.  Notables included:
Blue-gray gnatcatchers - continuing a surge, with 20+ birds in 1 hour
Ruby-cr.Kinglets - 10
Brown Thrasher - 1
Rough-winged Swallow - 25+
Barn Swallow- 2
Tree Swallow - 4
Yellow-throated Warbler - 2
N.Parula - 2
Yellow-rumped - 5
PRAIRIE WARBLER - 1 singing male
E.Towhee - 6+
Field Sparrows - 5+
White-thr.Sparrows - 35+
ORCHARD ORIOLE - 1 singing male (likely on territory)
