Results of Brooklyn Bird Club Prospect walk

Results of Brooklyn Bird Club Prospect walk
leading: Keir Randall and Rob Bate

The BBC walk was a big group with lots of keen eyes.
Thanks to all for finding many good birds and to Rafael
who helped out Rob and I.All 3 Wilsonia was nice :)
Birds marked "pm" were mostly without the
group.
Around 3pm birds started bottlenecking/staging
at the Peninsula tip/ South lakeside - spectacular.
50 individual warblers on the Peninsula alone is
probably a conservative estimate as are all numbers
below.
