I can add to this list a single Great Crested Flycatcher calling to the NW of the Hawthorns and a single quiet skulking Brown Thrasher just at the SW corner. There was a flock of 4-6 White-throated Sparrows working the bushes along the stream to the South of the Hawthorns and a single Swamp Sparrow upstream from them, near the main path which crosses the stream in line with the East edge of the Hawthorn Orchard. I heard a single Yellow-rumped flyover when I was there earlier and saw a single probable Yellow-rump flyover while chatting with Chris, Jessie and Grant.
Good birding!

Highlights included Eastern Kingbird, Rose-breasted Grosbeak and some nice patch birds like Purple Martin, Chimney Swift, Red-brested Nuthatch and Pine Siskins. A complete list is here: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S13962187 Grant and I also went to the Park Preserve earlier in the day. Highlights included NINE species of warblers including Magnolia, Prairie, Black-throated Blue, Nashville, Black-and-white and parula.
