Alley Pond Park 20 April After meeting at Hempstead Lake SP, Joe Giunta, Pat Jones and I (Sy Schiff) left . (Birding there was dull there). It was not significantly better at Alley Pond. However, we did find some FOS birds and were serenaded by Yellow-rumped Warblers almost everywhere we went, Other warblers were a single PALM WARBLER and a COMMON YELLOWTHROAT singing from the vegetation in the pond at the bottom of the stairs.
Other birds of interest were BLUE-GRAY GNATCATCHER, WARBLING VIREO, HOUSE WREN, CHIPPING SPARROW and a half dozen lingering RUSTY BLACKBIRDS.
