For reference, should anyone come out to investigate, the thin, red lines on
the radar display, where the image faded, are local main north-south routes;

Although we got off to a late start, Gerry and Eleanor, Alexandra, Bronx
Brendan and I had some great birds and a fun morning, from 9:45 till noon.
Baltimore Orioles and Yellow Warblers were everywhere we looked.
This is the third time I birded Hunter Island this week, each time was
rewarding.
Prothonotary Warbler seen at 1150 at North Ponds at Bronx Zoo. He was low
in the trees on the island of the larger half of the exhibit.
