Great Falls National Park finally showed some warbler migration activity this 
morning, Thursday, April 11.  I heard 3 (saw 2) La. Waterthrushes and heard 
several Parulas (saw 1), in addition to Palm and Yellow-rumped Warblers.  But 
the highlight was the large number of Purple Finches (mostly males)  feeding 
in the canopy among the myriad goldfinches in both the picnic and wooded 
areas of the park.

Chipping Sparrow, Eastern Phoebe, Rough-winged Swallow, and Wood Duck were 
other spring arrivals sighted.
