I made a quick run-through of the main areas in this NE Columbus MetroPark, stopping at Shrock Lake, the Thomas Trail, and the Spring Creek Trail, all in 1.5 hours, before a quick stop at nearby Heritage Park for riparian birds.  Migrants were spotty, but I did accumulate a good list, including,

Flycatchers - the expected Phoebes & Great Cresteds, along with my FOS Least Flycatcher and 2 E.Kingbirds
Vireos - multiples of Blue-headed, Warbling, and Red-eyed
Kinglets - several Ruby-crowneds, along with a singing Golden-crown along the Thomas Trail
Thrushes - only Wood Thrushes, but they were in several places
Mimids - plenty of Gray Catbirds, but there was a single singing Brown Thrasher near Shrock Lake

Warblers - 15 species, with Tennessee being the most common (8), followed by Yellow-rumped, Nashville, CommonYellowthroat, Ovenbird, and Blackburnians (5).  Also had Yellow, Parula, Yellow-throated, Chesnut-sided, Magnolia, Palms, Blue-winged, Black-throatedGreen, and Black&White.

Buntings,Grosbeaks - had singing Indigo Buntings and Rose-br.Grosbeaks, both at Heritage
Tanagers - a single male Scarlet Tanager was singing at heritage Park
Sparrows - lots of Fields & Towhees, along with small flocks of White-throated Sparrows
Orioles - 4 Baltimores and 1 Orchard were around Shrock Lake
