All,
Just an interesting note to add to all of this, Pine Siskins have been reported from Ohio this week as well. Interesting. Great Birding to All!

Yesterday, Sunday 9/28, Nadir Sourgi heard 2 Pine Siskins calling in the North Woods of Central Park (ebird checklist). In the early morning today, Monday 9/29, Junko Suzuki saw a small group (5) of Pine Siskins at Strawberry Field, which is also in Central Park (ebirdsnyc). happy Fall birding, Anders Peltomaa Mannahatta On Mon, Sep 29, 2014 at 1:08 PM, J GLUTH <jgl...@optonline.net> wrote: There was definite migratory movement by Blue Jays on Long Island's north shore Sunday morning. Nothing comparable with what Mickey Scilingo has been experiencing upstate, but I counted a minimum of 250 over the first 2 hours or so of my visit (7:15-10:45) when I was in more open habitat close to the LI Sound beachfront. Groups of 5-15 jays were steadily moving west, with sporadic rebound flights of some birds heading back to the east. They were fairly ubiquitous when I birded in the woods farther inland later in the morning as well. There were some smaller passerines moving early too, but in much lower numbers and distant/high enough to be mostly beyond my flight ID skills. Other later Fall migrants seen in good numbers included E. Phoebe and Palm Warbler, with personal FOS Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Yellow-rumped Warbler, and White-throated and White-crowned sparrows also present. Unfortunately no Siskins.
