There was a brief flurry of activity under heavy cloud cover this morning around 8AM. Best was at the 1st pullout by the cabins where one small, then a large mixed flock moved through quickly. Once they crossed the road by the parking lot, they were gone for good.

I wasn't able to get on everything but a list of warblers I did manage to pick out is below. I was also treated to Wild Turkeys calling repeatedly as well as stunning looks at a male Pileated Woodpecker. A flock of calling Cedar Waxwings flew over.

Warblers (in with R-B Nuts, Carolina Chickadees, and many Downy WPs, one Rose-breasted Grosbeak and one Swainson's Thrush):

Black & White
Com Yellowthroat
Orange-crowned
Am Redstart (1 gorgeous male, 1 female)
Nashville
Bay-breasted
Tennessee
Magnolia

At the Creekside Trail, it was pretty quiet. I only added Black-Thr Green to the warbler list. Numerous E. Phoebes were chasing each other, White-eyed Vireo, Red-eyed Vireo, Warbling Vireo and a couple different Empids. Also a female Indigo Bunting.
