At 7:35 this morning I had a Mississippi Kite migrating over Strawberry Fields heading south. Also seen by Mike & Ray Bryant, Irene Payne and Johannes Rydstrom (visiting from Sweden).
Migrants passerines were plentiful. My personal list included 14 species of warblers, 20+ Rose-breasted Grosbeaks, 8 Ruby-throated Hummingbirds, many Swainson's Thrushes, 2 Gray-cheeked Thrushes, several Scarlet Tanagers, etc. Peter Post Manhattan -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
