The highlights early this morning were a fly-over Cattle Egret and a Pine Siskin at Ft. Tilden. The land bird flight was modest, consisting mostly of Red-winged Blackbird and American Goldfinch. A Lincoln's Sparrow was north of the ball fields at Ft. Tilden. A cooperative Yellow-breasted Chat was along the fence at the southwest corner of the Riis Park golf course (found by Starr Saphir and her group), and a Marsh Wren was glimpsed in the weeds along the Riis Park promenade. White-crowned Sparrows were abundant today. We saw at least 20 birds, including one adult. Warblers included Nashville, Black-throated Green, and Magnolia.
