Hi All, Central Park was still quite productive today, as I personally tallied 61 species in the park today, and a few other species were reported by others. (i.e. american woodcock). Highlights from today included BLUE-HEADED VIREO, PURPLE FINCH, numerous PINE, PALM and YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERS, multiple LOUISIANA WATERTHRUSH, BARN SWALLOW, FIELD and SAVANNAH SPARROW, SNOWY EGRET and COMMON LOON. WINTER WRENS also put on a nice show throughout the park, singing in several places. I birded both the Ramble area and the North End, but did not get to the southern part of the park. Below are the links to my ebird checklists from my two separate outings.
