Highlights from May
May 16th: The winds overnight were forecast to bring very little migration, but during that morning, the trees were dripping with warblers. During the time I birded in the morning and the afternoon, I saw 23 warbler species, a new record!
I saw a Mourning Warbler feeding on late termite hatchout in a tree on May 28th with others. Also added Yellow-Bellied Flycatcher that day
Very cooperative Kentucky Warbler at Washington Square Park
Very cooperative Blue Grosbeak at Battery Park
2 Summer Tanagers in Central Park
Managed to get Purple Finch singing in the spring on the first of May.
Not highlights
Missed Spotted Sandpiper quite a few times, even one by seconds! Also do not have Willow Flycatcher.
