Checklist Comments

A major fallout day - the Ambergil was especially bonkers - with numerous termite hatch-outs and birds everywhere. Can't remember the last time I've had so many birds flying directly towards my face. Hit most spots except the vale, top of lookout, and south side of lake. I had 23 warbler species, missing Blue-winged (!), Hooded, Tennessee, Cerulean, and Mourning - so there were 28 warbler species in the park today. Amazing day.
