I was surprised when I woke up to clear skies and sun, so I took advantage and headed out. Hempstead and Valley Stream SPs featured similar spreads of migrants. For warblers, both locations had Blue-winged (at least 3 at VS), Parula, N. Waterthrush, Ovenbird, Yellowthroat, Yellow, and Yellow-rump. Hempstead had Black-throated Green and Palm as well as Solitary Sandpiper, and Valley Stream hosted singles of Baltimore Oriole, Blue-headed, and Warbling Vireo.
