A stop at Mason Dixon Farm this morning yielded no more spring migrants but the Killdeer flock had grown to 26, definitely a sign of post-breeding gathering. Southbound migrants should appear in a week or two.
This site is also in one of my atlas blocks and I added 14 species today (including such hard to find birds such as American Crow, Carolina Chickadee, and Tufted Titmouse) to bring it up to 73.
