The field across from Oakland Lake (northeastern Queens) is still pulling in migrants, with an ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER there today. Still some sparrows in there, with 2 Savannahs most interesting. While they've been common throughout migration, it seems late for that now. They seem to have been there a few days, at least - wintering ones in northern Queens would be unusual. Also good for the neighborhood - in fact the first one I've seen in northern Queens - is a REDHEAD on the lake today. Did not see the Cackling Goose there or on Alley Pond today.
