I took a walk in the rain today at at Woodlake nature center hoping to find the Northern Parula. I was unsuccessful in finding it, but I did come across lots of PALM WARBLERS, several BLACK AND WHITE, 2 CHESTNUT SIDED (one of my favorites!), and of course, hundreds of YELLOW RUMPED. Unfortunately, I didn't hear many of the warblers sing at all, so I just had to look at each one in my binoculars to see if it was a yellow rumped or not. There was also a large flock containing BARN SWALLOWS, TREE SWALLOWS, CHIMNEY SWIFTS, and a couple CLIFF SWALLOWS.
BTW, thanks everyone for the response on the Chukar, I was hoping it wouldn't be that, since it sure looked like a good find. :) -Elijah
