I noticed on this morning's NEXRAD radar (
http://www.pauljhurtado.com/US_Composite_Radar/2014-4-24/animated_sunrise.html)
that the storm passed into Ohio just as night migrants were landing around
sunrise.

If went birding at your local migrant traps despite the wet weather, did
you find anything new? Positive and negative reports are welcomed! :-)

If you're stuck in the city for the day, definitely those small patches of
green surrounded by heavily paved urban areas (e.g. the gardens around the
state house in Columbus, etc.) -- any birds that put down in your area have
likely found and used those patches of temporary shelter as stopover
habitat.

Good birding,
-Paul Hurtado

PS: White-eyed Vireo and Swainson's Thrush at Glen Echo park in Columbus
yesterday evening.
