David Slager and I spent the morning looking for any migrants that
came in with the recent front, starting at the capitol building then
heading to Three Creeks after a brief stop at Goodale Park. We
stopped at "Cruiser Park" on our way back (map: http://goo.gl/qbYUp )
looking for the Ross's Goose (not found) and after I dropped Dave off
at his place, I made a "quick" stop by the OSU wetlands on my way
home. Highlights below, and a few photos (Prairie, Orange-crowned and
B&W Warblers) at http://www.flickr.com/photos/pauljhurtado/

Peregrine Falcon, Field, Chipping, and WT Sparrows, and the 5 species
