And to add on to Lewis' observations, this morning Reedy Creek-42nd St had
plenty of White-throated Sparrows and Yellow-rumped Warblers, as well as a
few Winter Wrens, Ruby-crowned Kinglets and the star of the morning -- a
Cape May Warbler.  No Red-breasted Nuthatches that I saw.

Just to tag on to the reports of White-throated Sparrows arriving, I spent
45 minutes at Reedy Creek late Tuesday afternoon, and found it thick with
Yellow-rumped Warblers and Ruby-crowned Kinglets (5 or 6 kinglets in one
tree near the Visitor’s Center). There were also reports from Jan Frye at
Bryan Park of both varieties of Kinglets, Winter Wren, Dark-eyed Junco,
White-crowned Sparrow and a Red-breasted Nuthatch. I’m hoping that last one
means we’ll get a good irruption this year.
