Ooh, I'm pretty sure this is an Orange-Crowned Warbler I spotted in the brush in Indian Boundary Park yesterday. Wasn't a fan of sitting still out in the open. This was the best shot I got.

The upgrade to Oz Park Playground now features spacious bike racks designed to accommodate cargo bikes with ease. This should be the standard in every park.
