Just spotted a male Prothonotary Warbler in the tree at the SW corner of Madison Sq Park (the tall tree behind the Seward statue).
Also seen: B&W Warbler, Northern Parula, Black-throated Green Warbler, about 8 Hermit Thrushes on the lawn in the center of the park, alongside an Ovenbird. Not bad for 5 minutes of birding while passing through!
