Before the winds, but after the rain, I went to the park. Birds were everywhere. Sixteen species warblers including both Waterthrushes; Gray-cheeked, Swainson's, Wood Thrushes; Yellow-bellied, Least Flycatcher and I thought I heard a Pewee; Grosbeaks and Buntings, Catbirds, White-throated Sparrows, Wrens and a single Red-headed Woodpecker, besides the locals; all in a frenzy to eat and move before the next storm or the high winds came along...........
