Hello, Peter
On this sunny, almost October day our peregrinations yielded 58 species, incorporating departing migrants, arriving migrants and year-round residents and including 16 warbler species. Highlights included a couple of cooperative Cape Mays, a shy Winter Wren, a Lincoln's Sparrow and a Gray-cheeked Thrush.

Best regards, Ed

Hi Peter, 60 sp doesn't sound like much but we had a great day and were out for over 7.5 hours! The bird of the day was a Least Bittern found by Isabel along the lullwater. We also hooded warbler at the 'hummingbird nursery' and a nice blackburnian by 3 sisters. We also saw a Cooper's being harassed by a Sharpie (check my pics to be sure!). attached a few pics.
exhausted but happy!
best,
Bobbi

Thank you for joining me at Brooklyn Bridge Park today! While we just missed a series of heavy migration days by one day, there were still enough lingering birds to capture our attention.
We stayed at the pollinator garden on Pier 6 just long enough to see the sun hit the tops of the trees and give us a taste of the warblers that we would encounter throughout the park - American Redstarts, Northern Parulas, and pair of Yellow Warbers. On Pier 3, the stand of birch trees near the maze attracted a variety of additional migrants - Black-throated Blue (female), Black-and-white Warbler, and for some, a Tennessee Warbler. One of our first sparrow migrants, a Savannah Sparrow, showed well on the Pier 3 field.
The Brooklyn Bridge Park gardeners are proud of the jewelweed plantings by the Pier 1 Long Pond that have attracted Ruby-throated Hummingbirds in late summer. Amazingly, one hummer zoomed in to feed on the flowers the minute the group walked onto the adjacent bridge, and it stayed for a few minutes to offer excellent views.
See you out there soon!

21 species warblers on a good northerly wind!

Hi Peter,
It was a really beautiful day today in the park. And, especially in the north end, very birdy. There clearly was a good flight into the park last night.
Below is the list.
Highlights included Great Cormorant (!), 21 species of warblers including Bay-breasted, a couple of Tennessee, Prairie, Blackpoll, Pine, Palm, and lots of Redstarts and Northern Paruuuulas...., and 2 or 3 Gray-cheeked Thrushes.
One highlight was Michele finding a Connecticut Warbler on the peninsula, not far from the shelter. She had a brief look and we couldn't re-find it but later Kathy Toomey did find it again in the same area.
Here's the list.
Best regards,
Tom

Hi Peter,
a REALLY good day of birding. i was worried we'd have to cancel due to rain, but it had all passed by start time. (did you get a Tornado wanring at 4 am? I did!!!)
i can't say anything new blew in, and we didnt' have a high warbler count (12sp) but there were birds EVERYWHERE. we never had to look far to see activity. tanagers, orioles, yellow throated vireo, etc.
somehow a CRAWDAD had gotten out of the water by Binnen Bridge and a woman and her son were trying to rescue it w/ a stick. Bob O'Neil retrieved some thick paper and scooped it up (it was fighting-angry!!!) and deposited it back in the binnen. Hero of the day!
here's a few pics..

Hi Peter,
Another beautiful day. There was a much different mix of birds this week, most in the northern part of the park, so probably new arrivals last night.
We did end up with a respectable list including 16 species of warblers.
Highlights: 2 different, close-perched Ospreys, one a fresh juvenile and one with a fish (didn't get the species..), Bay-breasted, Canada, Wilson's, Blackburnian, Blackpoll Warblers; Spotted Sandpiper, Coot, and more.
Here's the list.
Best regards,
Tom
