I stopped by Jackson Nature Park in Wilson just before 11 am today to look for the Black-throated Gray Warbler that was found by Derek Muschalek last weekend. I only had about an hour to bird, so I did not have time to bird the park thoroughly, but I was able to find the warbler in the tops of some live oak trees near the creek that runs through the park. I can give more detailed directions if needed. Other highlights were 12 species of sparrows including Fox, Harris's and Grasshopper.
