Migrants were numerous at Arch Creek Park and Greynolds Park following heavy showers that crossed the area around 7:ooam. A female Hooded Warbler was found on the trail at Arch Creek Park. The best concentration of birds were in several fruiting Strangler figs located north of Picnic Shelter 5 in the Mahogany Picnic Area north of the Boathouse in Greynolds Park. The trees were very active with feeding Black-throated Blue Warblers, Tennessee, Cape May, and several Chestnut-sided Warblers. A Blackburnian and several Bay-breasted Warblers were found in Live Oaks just west of Shelter 5. A likely Willow Flycatcher (based on careful study of field markings and its sharp "whit" call), was observed feeding in a trema along the hammock edge in picnic area.
