Thanks for your response. Since I've only been to the park once, the directions I'm giving are based on Google maps. From the satellite images, I'm guessing we parked near the grandstand. The city street immediately north of this parking area is Guilford Rd. (per Google maps). The "ponds" are in the area near Harvest Ct.. I'm pretty sure it was a dirt trail. We didn't see the bird there, I only gave that information for reference. At the point where these "ponds" narrow into a canal, we turned back toward the parking lot . I'm pretty sure that was a paved trail. I referred to it as the "main" trail, but perhaps it would be better described as a "fork". We saw the bird high up in a tree near this fork as we walked back toward the parking lot. It was not a painted bunting, as I'm familiar with that bird. I hope this helps.
