I squeezed out a little time to bird along Big Walnut Creek Greenbelt in Gahanna (McCorkle Park and nearby areas) and nearby Gahanna Woods, finding a fairly slow day for migrants despite the unsettled weather.  Thrushes were up, especially at Gahanna Woods, and flycatchers were more noticeable, while warblers, tanagers, and grosbeaks were all in a lull.  Notables included:

Flycatchers - multiple Pewees, Great Cresteds, and Acadians at both sites
Vireos - Red-eyed common at both sites; Gahanna Woods also had a singing White-eyed
Kinglets - no kinglets at either site

Thrushes - good #s at Gahanna Woods with 16 Swainson's 2 Wood, 1 Gray-cheek and 1 Veery in 1 hour.  The Greenbelt had 6 Swainson's and 2 Wood Thrushes.

Mimids - plenty of Catbirds at both sites, but nothing else

Warblers - miserly #s, except for Redstarts.  Gahanna Woods had Magnolia, Chesnut-sided, Ovenbird, and Com.Yellowthroat, while the Greenbelt had these plus Parula, Yellow-throated, Tennessee, and Blackpoll.

Tanagers - 1 Scarlet at Gahanna Woods, nothing at the Greenbelt
Grosbeaks,Buntings - a few Indigo Buntings at both sites
Sparrows - still a few White-throateds at Gahanna Woods, along with expected Chipping & Songs
Orioles - 2 Baltimores along the Greenbelt.
