Yesterday, Brian Byrne and I found a singing CERULEAN WARBLER at Afton State Park (Washington County). The bird was along the first ravine loop trail, just north of the first bridge on the North River Trail (along the river bottomlands). Ben Douglas and I tried to relocate the bird today without success. After I left today, Ben found the SUMMER TANAGER that has been present in previous years. He reported the bird from the northern portion of the Trout Brook Loop. Both days, my birding buddies and I had unsuccessful searches for Hooded Warbler and Prothonotary Warbler in the locations at which they have bred in previous years. I also heard from another birder yesterday who had unsuccessful searches of the same locations. I will continue to check for these species periodically in the coming weeks and will provide updates. Other species seen and/or heard today in Ben's and my combined outing included the usual Afton SP breeders: WOOD THRUSH, OVENBIRD (10+), BLUE-WINGED WARBLER (7-8), EASTERN TOWHEE (7-8), a few YELLOW-THROATED VIREOS, a singing SCARLET TANAGER, and YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKER. Migrant species included NASHVILLE WARBLER (7+), BLACK-AND-WHITE WARBLER, TENNESSEE WARBLER, CHESTNUT-SIDED WARBLER, NORTHERN PARULA, and BLUE-EYED VIREO.
