There were an estimated 250-300 Cedar Waxwings this morning at Tall Cypress. They were mostly flitting around in groups of 15-30, but would occassionaly coalesce into one or two super-flocks. When they did settle down, they were primarily perched in the tall cypress trees along the 'wet' side of the park (to the right as you enter). I was able to count nearly 100 birds in a single tree (before they all decided to rearrange themselves!). I'm guessing that there's probably enough food to keep them around for at least a couple of days.
Otherwise, lots of spring woodpecker activity (Flicker, Pileated, Downy, Red-bellied) along the boardwalk. As for warblers, mostly scattered resident-types now that the Yellow-rumpeds have left.
