I hit the entrance road to Bear Lake at ENP today. There was a good assortment of migrants including a single Nashville Warbler right at the intersection with the main park road, 3 Clay-colored Sparrow (see pic below feeding on the roadside in the woods strangely enough), a Swainson's Warbler, and a Blackpoll Warbler. In total I had 14 species of warbler, there were hoards of Painted Buntings as well. Later season migrants such as Gray Catbird, E. Phoebe, and House Wren were also present. On the way back I saw the continuing? Crested Caracara on a pole adjacent to Lucky Hammock.
