Among the birds of some interest reported not too far from NY are a
Fork-tailed Flycatcher (not just a one-day wonder) from Tues. into
Wed., 9/29-30 in South Wellfleet, Massachusetts, 2 Western Kingbirds
at Block Island (part of but off 'mainland' Rhode Island)
Just had two immature Baltimore orioles at my birdbath with a mixed flock of
sparrows, robins and cardinals. Hopefully they'll stay awhile and visit my
oriole feeder since the other pair left while I was away.
