Fall Warbler bonanza

After Ida's rains, I thought the Park might be exciting this morning. I was right! 33 spp, including four American Redstarts and this Tennessee Warbler at the back of the upper garden (along with Northern Parula and Common Yellowthroat)

a pair of Northern Parulas

 

and, the best surprise of all, a beautiful Connecticut Warbler, only my second time seeing this bird! 
















And an almost tail-less Song Sparrow permitted this portrait --
