Updated the map again, with "28" to show the Nov. 28 location. http://www.stevewalternature.com/downloads/Alley_Map.jpg . I also marked a "K" for Kingsbury Ave. There is parking on the street and an entrance into the park that puts you close. There are split walkways that go under and over the Vanderbilt Parkway. There is an exit from the westbound Grand Central right here, but onto a one way street. Just go around the block if coming this way. A paved trail around the west and north side of Little Alley Pond leads to the Painted Bunting area, if you feel that's still worth the pursuit.

Another positive report comes in from Eric Miller and Bobby Veltri who had the Virginia's Warbler around 2:30 p.m. Eric's message describes the following: seen in the South East corner by the stairway leading up to the Vanderbilt Motor Parkway. This is near Little Alley Pond just below the Grand Central Parkway. The bird was foraging on the slope with the pine trees.

The bird has since disappeared, but it's good to know the bird is still present and possibly favoring a new location. > > Patricia Lindsay > Bay Shore > > -- > > 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/ > > -- -- 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/ -- -- 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/ --
