I did a quick loop through Walnut Woods SP (Polk Co) this afternoon while running errands and had a similar list to Bill's. In about five minutes I had six species and about a dozen individual warblers as well as the yellowest Yellow-bellied Flycatcher I have ever seen. And then they were gone. Morning could be interesting.
