The final day of the Festival of Birds started warm and clear.

This morning at the Tip a NEOTROPIC CORMORANT was seen, as well as at least
30 AMERICAN WHITE PELICANS. A YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER was also observed
flying off the Tip.

There are multiple reports of YELLOW-BILLED CUCKOOS, including at the Tip
and on Woodland Nature Trail. There are also several YELLOW-BELLIED
FLYCATCHERS throughout the park.

Thank you to all of the volunteers, festival organizers, park staff, and
hike leaders for making this another great Festival of Birds. See you next
year!
