I did a couple of hours in Forest Park this evening after work, much of it in the company of Danny Melore, and we had a pretty good showing despite the drizzlymist and the difficult light.
Highlights included a flyover Common Nighthawk, three Worm-eating Warblers (two seen, one photographed), a Tennessee Warbler, my FOS Swainson's Thrush and Wilson's Warbler, as well as what would have been my FOS Lincoln's Sparrow if I had not run across two in Bryant Park this morning. We also had a total of four Canada Warblers and, perhaps most interestingly, I had three Solitary Sandpipers at the waterhole which is so large at this point that I wouldn't be surprised to come across gannets plunge-diving there.
