[nysbirds-l] Prothonotary warbler van Cortlandt park, Bronx
Currently listening to and watching a prothonotary warbler on the NE side of the van Cortlandt pk lake in the Bronx. Seen from the trail along the edge of the lake. The bird is singing and preening. It has a deformed lower mandible, significantly longer that the upper mandible, but otherwise looks well.

[nysbirds-l] Iceland Gull in Central Park Reservoir
March 17th, ~4:15pm The Iceland Gull was seen, by scope, standing on the ice in the center of the reservoir amongst Ring-billed and Herring Gulls. It was similar in size to the Herring Gulls, with a mantle more pale than those of the surrounding gulls, white wing tips, at a distance the bill looked completely black. I am not a gull expert but this gave me the impression of 1st winter bird. Unfortunately I do not have any photos. Also seen in the reservoir were the previously reported Red-necked Grebe and male Ring-necked Duck in the SE corner of the reservoir. I did not see the American Wigeon. Full list is on ebird.
