Central Park, Manhattan, N.Y. City
Monday, June 7th -
At least ten species of warbler were lingering in Central Park on Monday, including at least 8 of those within the Ramble and vicinity. Those species included:
N. Parula (ongoing singing male, since at least last Thursday)
Black-throated Blue Warbler (female plumage)
Black-throated Green Warbler (female plumage)
Magnolia Warbler (male)
Blackpoll Warbler (several, including females)
American Redstart (at least several)
Black-and-white Warbler (several)
Yellow Warbler (several including singing males)
Canada Warbler (female plumage)
Common Yellowthroat (several)
Additionally some of the above species have continued to be found elsewhere in New York County, with 2 of those at least potential breeders there, Yellow Warbler and Common Yellowthroat; also still being seen in some additional locations were Blackpoll Warbler and American Redstart. The latter is also a potential scarce breeder, perhaps more (relatively) likely to be found as such in the 4 other counties of N.Y. City.
And as an added note, some Mourning Warblers were still being found passing through states to the south of New Jersey in recent days (and thus also south of N.Y. State), although that last species is well-known to have an especially late-moving migration thru the mid to late parts of spring, and early June migration passage for it is not unusual.
At all of Central Park on Monday 6/7, nearly fifty species of birds were present, including the few that are mostly visitors & fly-overs at various times of day &/or night (Chimney Swift, Double-crested Cormorant, Snowy Egret, Great Egret, and Black-crowned Night Heron), particularly through mid-spring to late summer.
good birding to all,
