I just saw this notice from eBird, but nothing on CayugaBirds-L or the text rare bird alert yet. Nice description by Diane Traina of the Yellow-throated Warbler at the NYS-89 entrance to South Spring Pool at Montezuma NWR. (It’s shocking how many people don’t actually describe the rarities they report.) This is a species we don’t see every year in the Cayuga Lake Basin, although Dave Kennedy also found one 2 days ago next to Seneca Lake north of Willard Town Park. An invasion! I hope this one sticks around and is easier to refind.
