The east end of Tower Grover Park was exceptionally birdy this morning. Between 9 a.m. and noon, Joe Eads, John Newman, Mark Mittleman, Mike Grant, Sue Eaton and myself saw a constant stream of warblers between the cypress circle and the Jack Van Benthuysen pool. Species seen: Yellow-throated vireo Blue-headed vireo Red-eyed vireo Northern Parula, (2) Tennessee Nashville Chestnut sided Magnolia Blackburnian Yellow-rumped Black-throated Green (at least 50) Pine (probable) Palm Bay-breasted (2) Yellow-throated (1) Black and white Am.
