With so many reports I only mention that there were at least 1 male and 1  
female Black-throated Blue Warbler ; at least 2 males and 1 female Cape May  
Warbler; one  Yellow Warbler probably dropped in late afternoon. 
 
Examples:

More photos can be found here (no luck on that day - only ‘birds on the  
stick (or rock)“ ):

Although Gray Catbird is a common find, here, photographed at that day,  
this catbird gave a nice bathing show - this short, slowed down video (8x) 
shows  detailed movements but even at a slower speed all movements are 
incredibly  quick. (One also can hear other bird calls in the background)
