Mostly Yellow-rumped Warblers, who knows how many, maybe 40, plus Warbling Vireos, Orange-crowned Warblers, Wilson's Warblers, a MacGillivray's Warbler, a Black-throated Gray Warbler, a Hermit Thrush, a Red-breasted Nuthatch and a Lincoln's Sparrow. Throw in a distant Red-tailed Hawk for 22 yardbirds.
