This morning at 6:30 am Jared Keyes called to alert me to a hatch out in the trees around the pedestrian bridge over the bridle path at the southwest corner of the reservoir, just north of the 86th street transverse. I arrived at 8 am to find the trees alive with multiples of many of the warbler species in the park, including:
Cape May Bay-breasted Blackburnian Canada Tennessee Magnolia Chestnut-sided Wilson's Yellow BT-blue BT-green Common yellowthroat Black and white Yellow-rumped Also present at times were rose-breasted grosbeak,scarlet tanager, veery, swainson's thrush,least flycatcer and red-eyed vireo. There was a flock of chimney swifts hunting directlyoverhead. Most of the warblers were still present when I left at 8:40. Sorry I couldn't post sooner.
