New arrival in the park today was a singing SCARLET TANAGER.  Also had a low flyover COMMON LOON and an immature SHARP-SHINNED HAWK that appeared chasing a large flock of Cedar Waxwings.  Still one PURPLE FINCH.

Plenty of Yellow-rumps and several Parulas (first of the year for the park proper).  When I came home I saw a Ruby-crowned Kinglet in the neighbor's tree and heard (but couldn't find) a mystery warbler near there--probably a Yellow, but I can't rule out Nashville.  I really need to bone up on my warbler recordings!
