Still good numbers of migrants around.
I had the most unusual sighting earlier this morning:
under a Mulberry Tree where a number of the little white wooly blooms? had 
fallen on the path, a large group of birds was feeding on the path.
The site is just past the bathroom to the right, a good observation point is 
beside the large cutout titled "insect"

Present were:

4-5 Gray Catbirds
White-throated and White-crowned Sparrows
Several Swainson's Thrushes
1 Veery
2 Gray-cheeked Thrushes

I have never seen all 3 thrushes together, not sure just what they were eating
Steve Zipperer was also on hand for the show.

Cheers
