Alley Pond Park 23 Sep Joe Giunta and I (Sy Schiff) birded from 9:00 to noon on a very dull birding day. The sun was out and the weather was superb. We saw, at most, 15 warblers, but 7 species. Listers can run up big lists without seeing many birds.
The 2 previously reported SOLITARY SANDPIPERS were on the edge of Little Alley Pond. On the way back to the car, after our morning exercise (not much birding), we found a PHILADELPHIA VIREO in the middle to upper canopy along the trail that enters near the Winchester Ave. parking lot. The last bird of the morning was our target bird. Good end to a lovely morning.
