Following directions from a birder on this list, I set out this
morning to look for Barred Owls.  There were a great number of Blue
Jays on the Great Lawn, and the area west of the lawn and south of the
Pinetum was heavily patrolled by Titmouseen.  There I saw the
unmistakable sign of  owl  presence:  birders  looking straight up in
a tree.  I had a decent view of the Barred Owl, which was restless
(though not under any pressure from other birds that I could tell),
and flew to another nearby tree, which gave an even better angle.

While leaving the park, I saw an Eastern Bluebird along the path
towards Winterdale, which moved off in the direction of Summit Rock.

Good birding,
