Hi all, 

Our plan to go to Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens this morning after the rain fell through when an accident stalled traffic to infuriating levels (!) and we bagged it. Later in the morning we took the dogs to Paint Branch Park and enjoyed a nice walk with several FOS birds, including multiple RED-EYED VIREOS and ACADIAN FLYCATCHERS. Nice to have the Acadians back! Few warblers but it was getting late; I am sure it was a lot busier earlier... We also enjoyed some butterflies including a Mourning Cloak .
