My wife decided to stop one last time at the club - and the rain briefly subsided - so I took a short walk at Pioneer Park in Princeton.
You never know when you're going to be blessed. Amidst a small movement of warblers & vireos, a Yellow-bellied Flycatcher gave good looks. Amidst a chorus of waterthrushes & Wood Thrushes, a Connecticut Warbler sang repeatedly. Then, just as I was leaving, a Black-throated Blue sang twice. I think. Could not locate it visually, and needed to leave. My experience with them over the years is primarily visual, and only have three in nine years in MN, one of which was during migration in the same park. Did listen to I-Bird's recording, match was quite good. Good birding to all of my MN birding friends.
