This morning at windy Alley Pond Park there was a decent variety of birds, and unlike previous visits, a few species made there way down to the lower reaches where they could be seen. Our best bird was a female Summer Tanager in the Oaks just north of the handball courts, near the Mel Kaplan dedication sign. We had seventeen species of warblers (no uncommon or rare species) as well. At JBWR in late morning the wind had increased in velocity and most birds were keeping their heads down - nothing of significance to report.
Birds Seen By Others: Bob Kurtz reported seeing and hearing a Kentucky Warbler at Valley Stream State Park this morning.
