My son and I walked thru Terrapin Park at the Bay Bridge this morning.  As 
expected, not many migrants but a few that are worth noting:
   Magnolia Warbler - 1
   Redstart - male and female together
   Black throated Blue Warbler - male and female together
   Black and White Warbler
   Yellow-rumped Warbler - (1, yes only 1)
   Northern Harrier-1
   Scarlet Tanager - 1
   KIngfisher
   Caspian Tern -1 


I was curious about the multi-stemmed yellow flowering plant that was in 
great numbers at Terrapin Park.  I have seen it frequently lately.  It is 
not cosmos or black eyed susan or zinnia.  Does anyone know the name?
Thanks
