Right on schedule, we found a male Connecticut Warbler early this morning (5/7). As Toe, Pete and I were discussing Connecticuts' behavior, Toe spotted it. It was on the Pond Trail, about 10 yards north of intersect with dirt road that leads from the bike path restroom to the administration office.

Other warblers: Northern Parula, Chestnut-sided, Magnolia, Cape May, Black-throated Blue, Blackpoll, American Redstart, Ovenbird, Northern Waterthrush and Common Yellowthroat.

Also of interest: Canada Goose (!) flying north, Yellow-billed Cuckoo, Gray Kingbird, Purple Martin, Veery, Indigo Bunting and Bobolink.

Special treat was watching Northern Waterthrush, Chestnut-sided, American Redstart and Veery singing. Birds definitely moved out overnight, but the redstarts, yellowthroats and Cape Mays are too numerous to count. Greg Jones was also birding the park and will probably have additional species.
