All, I made a brief foray today to the Rockefeller Preserve, parking at the free area on Sleepy Hollow Road, then walking east and later west on Old Sleepy Hollow Trail, from around 3:30 pm to 5:00. This was certainly not an optimal time, so I didn't expect a lot, but it was very good.
Golden-crowned Kinglet Tufted Titmouse Am. Crow Yellow-rumped Warbler Yellow Warbler, lots Blue-winged Warbler Black-and-white Warbler Northern Parula Black-throated Blue Warbler, adult male American Redstart, many, male and female. Rose-brested Grosbeak Catbird, lots Phoebe House Wren Scarlet Tanager Veery Robin Cardinal Orchard Oriole: pair, beautiful male and female, along "Natures Trail" And a tantalizing too brief look at a bird that seemed to be a female Connecticut Warbler. I saw it skulking low, attracted by my pishing, along the "Natures Trail". Large warbler, eye ring, drab olive yellowish. I didn't see the tail. Call note matches description in Warblers book by Dunn and Garrett.
