[nysbirds-l] Central Park, NYC - Sunday, 9/3 - 24 warbler spp., etc.
Sunday, September 3rd - Central Park, Manhattan, N.Y. City - At least 24 species of American warblers were observed in the park during all of Sunday. These included such species as Mourning, Blackpoll, Bay-breasted, Worm-eating, Blackburnian, Cape May, Tennessee, Palm (of the yellow form), and of course many others. Many of these were photographed at various times, by observer-photographers totaling in the dozens all thru the day. While American Redstarts were again the most numerous with dozens found all around the park on the day, their numbers did drop a bit from the prior few days. And Nashville Warbler was one of the species that increased a bit, from just the day prior. Olive-sided Flycatcher was still being seen as were at least a few of Great Crested Flycatcher, and E. Kingbird sightings, the latter in particular having had large diurnal southbound migration in the past few days and also over prior weeks by now. Some of the many recent Empidonax-genus flycatchers have moved on, although fresh new southbounders may still come along yet. We also were starting to have some fresh arrivals of Eastern Phoebes on the move. Vireos of at least 3 spp. were still around - Yellow-throated, Warbling and many Red-eyed Vireos. The migrant thrush movements of recent may have been dominated by Veery, even with the little initial blast of more Swainsons Thrush than some had expected just yet. Even for a rather slower Sept. day with a light NW-wind over the prior night to early morning, the days tally of over 75 spp. of birds, some migrating and visiing raptors included, was nice to have just for this one park visited by so many. Thanks to the many observers were out at all hours including in warm times of the day, finding so many birds - and offering reports as well. Good birding to all, Tom Fiore manhattan -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
