As I arrived this morning at the park, from the Velodrome I saw an eagle flying on the north side of the park from west to east. It was a black bird about at least as big as a turkey vulture but too far for me to tell what it was, also the line of trees obstructed my view and ability to take a quick photo. It lacked any white on the underwing, no v-shaped wing posture. Just a heads up for eastern Queens/Long Island.
The red-breasted merganser continues but no common mergansers this morning. Brown thrasher, Merlin, Fox Sparrows continue, and there were still 5 woodcocks last night, but none were flushed out this morning.
