Tried to post this earlier but it didn't go. Anyways, I was on my way to lunch today and had just left the nature center when bing! I heard the cheery song of a Cerulean Warbler right out in front of the Nature Center! I skipped lunch to just spend some time with the little guy (anytime for a CERW!), I got decent looks and was able to show a few other people including my fellow naturalists there at the park. Usually he just hung out at the tops of the oak trees there, typical. Other birds at the park today included the following highlights: Nature Center area (buttonbush trail) Cerulean Warbler Black-throated Green Warbler Yellow-rumped Warbler - many singing today Pine Warbler Ruby-crowned Kinglet Blue-gray Gnatcatchers - many pairs at work Blue-headed Vireo Warbling Vireo House Wren Red-breasted Nuthatch Dark-eyed Junco White-throated Sparrows - lots of new arrivals American Wigeon - 2 birds showed up on the pond behind the feeders at center windows Wood Ducks Multi Use Trail along the Creek: Yellow-throated Warblers - Several singing from the Sycamores Northern Rough-winged Swallows - working the high banks. - Good Birding!
