For the past week, there's been a Warbling Vireo in the Rock Creek Regional Park playing field and along Rock Creek south of the intersection of East-West Highway and Beach Drive in Chevy Chase, Maryland. I heard it on May 15, 18, and 19, and saw and heard it on May 22. On the 22nd, I also saw Eastern Kingbirds, Northern Orioles, and an Orchard Oriole in this area.
