I birded SR41 and Loop Road from predawn to about 3pm. Highlights were 10 species of warblers, 4 Red-eyed Vireos which appeared to be territorial, a completely unexpected Northern Bobwhite between the Loop Rd Nature Center and pine areas (I now have both Bobwhite and Turkey for Monroe County--go figure!), both Gray and Eastern Kingbird, a late Catbird at Sweetwater Slough, 2 Least Bitterns, and less than 6' looks at King Rail and a family of Otters!
