[nysbirds-l] Croton Point YB Cuckoo and Blackpoll

2020-11-20 Thread Dawn Hannay
Highlights near the croton point landfill today included a Yellow-billed Cuckoo, flushed from the path below the landfill on the southeast side. It flew into the vines nearby and was vocalizing. I got some good photos. Also seen was a late Blackpoll Warbler foraging low in mugwort and grasses

[nysbirds-l] Least Flycatcher (probably) Prospect Park, Brooklyn
