When I got to work this morning at 6:15 or so, there were white-throated, white-crowned and fox sparrows, along with juncos singing from around the headquarters building. Was fun to hear, and see them back - until early afternoon when a young sharp-shinned hawk showed up - and they all disappeared for the rest of the day. This afternoon there was a small flock of warblers around the building, mostly yellow-rumped, but also orange-crowned, Nashville, Tennessee and one blackpoll. There was a lone snow goose reported from Big Bluestem Pool on the auto tour by a roving interpreter this afternoon. I didn't have time to get out to look for it, but will try tomorrow.
