This morning, David Adair and I got good looks at a singing CERULEAN WARBLER at Wilmes Lake Park in Woodbury (along the short creek corridor to the west of the north end of the lake). 12 other warbler species were present, including NORTHERN PARULA and GOLDEN-WINGED WARBLER.
Later at Afton State Park, we heard one HOODED WARBLER back on territory behind the visitor center, singing pretty far down the slope. Last year I counted at least 4 and possibly 5 different territories with singing males in the park in June. At the time, I also saw a female at one of those locations and heard from another birder of fledglings at a different location. Hopefully there will be multiple individuals present again this year. As in previous years, multiple BLUE-WINGED WARBLERS are also present on territory.
