Other than the arrival of Green-winged Teal and plenty of easily visible
ducks now that water is filling the first part of the resaca, the morning
was unremarkable until we arrived back in the parking island area.  There
we found a Blue-winged Warbler in a mixed flock that stayed in the area
between the maintenance road and park entrance throughout the afternoon.
No photos yet, but a Black-throated Gray was found in the mix mid
afternoon.  Perhaps someone will manage to get a photo tomorrow.
