This morning I had a productive walk in the National Arboretum. I saw 52 
species, including 10 species of warblers. Most warblers were at the top 
of the hill near the R St. entrance. Here are the highlights.

Warblers: Nashville Warbler, Northern Parula, Chestnut-sided Warbler, 
Magnolia Warbler, Black-throated Green Warbler, Black-and-white Warbler, 
American Redstart, Worm-eating Warbler, Ovenbird, Common Yellowthroat

Other highlights: Yellow-billed Cuckoo, Ruby-throated Hummingbird, 
Eastern Phoebe, Great Crested Flycatcher, Cedar Waxwing, Swainson's 
Thrush, Red-eyed Vireo, Scarlet Tanager, Field Sparrow, Rose-breasted 
Grosbeak

I also had a good day for hawks; the highlight among them was an 
American Kestrel.
