I went to Villa Angela/Wildwood today from 12:30pm to 3pm.  I ran into Jeanne Hrenko who was about to leave but stopped to tell me she thought she had seen a Cape May Warbler up in Villa Angela.  So I walked both parks but couldn't find it.  It was very windy in parts of Villa Angela.  So as I was walking back to my car near Lakeshore I got lucky and found it on the west side of Euclid Creek in the large area with trees just down from the northern tip of the Lakeshore parking lot.  It kept returning to a large long vine with twiggy stuff on it hanging from a tree and always made a loud chip sound before it flew helping to relocate it.  Also, was in the willows and nearby trees but kept moving around.  Otherwise, didn't find much unusual today as it was mostly Golden-crowned Kinglets.  There were many flitting around the grass today as it had rained earlier.  Here are a few of the birds I found:

Great Blue Heron 1
Cape May Warbler 1
Tufted Titmouse 5
Brown Creepers 5
Winter Wren 8 (very noticeable)
Golden-crowned Kinglets 50+
Ruby-crowned Kinglets 5 (these were near creek in Wildwood only)
Hermit Thrush 9
Cape May Warbler 1 
Fox Sparrows 2 (only seen by Jeanne)
Song Sparrows 5
Lincoln Sparrow 1
White-throated Sparrows - many
White-crowned Sparrow 5 ((Wildwood near creek)
Dark-eyed Junco 5
American Goldfinches 5-6
