Took a wrong turn on my way to work this morning (Tues, May 6) and found 
myself, can you believe this, at Rock Run Mill in Susquehanna SP.  Figure the 
odds.  Well, since I had my binos ;)

Warblers (20 species):

Prothonotary Warbler  (2)
Blue-winged Warbler  (1)
TENNESSEE WARBLER  (1, excellent view)
Northern Parula  (10+)
Magnolia Warbler  (2)
Yellow-rumped Warbler  (10+)
Black-and-white Warbler  (5)
Black-throated Blue Warbler  (3)
Cerulean Warbler  (easily 6 or more, low sunlit views)
Black-throated Green Warbler  (1)
Yellow-throated Warbler  (1)
Blackpoll Warbler  (2)
Yellow Warbler  (1)
Kentucky Warbler  (5)
Worm-eating Warbler  (2)
Ovenbird  (8, probably more)
Louisiana Waterthrush  (4)
Common Yellowthroat  (4)
Yellow-breasted Chat  (1)
American Redstart  (1)

Others (random order):

Scarlet Tanager  (4)
Indigo Bunting  (10+)
Baltimore Oriole  (8)
Orchard Oriole  (2)
Red-eyed Vireo  (6+)
White-eyed Vireo  (3)
Warbling Vireo  (2)
Blue-headed Vireo  (1)
Yellow-throated Vireo  (2)
House Wren  (2)
Cedar Waxwing  (2)
Ruby-throated Hummingbird  (1)
Wood Thrush  (4, probably more)

This list is from the mill area and trails leading up to Steppingstone.  This area 
has more forest/field edge and shrubby entanglements which generally provide 
awesome views  (i.e. NOT neck-breaking!!) for warblers willing to play it a little 
lower. Did not get to the Ridge Trail or do much floodplain birding.
