Prospect Thursday Fall series Sept 29th

Results of today's LAST Thursday Fall Series walk, led by Tom Stephenson.


The Brooklyn Bird Club thanks Tom for his generous time and efforts

leading the Autumn Thursday walks.

Here's is Tom's note:

Hi Peter,


Well, as was the case of a few of our Fall walks this year, a day that started looking dreary and birdless eventually yield some great species.


Today we had 13 species of warblers including Yellow-breasted Chat (not really a warbler anymore...but...), Tennessee, Nashville, 2 Wilson's warblers, a Philadelphia Vireo, an Indigo Bunting,


Towhee, Pied-billed Grebe, and some sparrows...50 species in total.






Here's the list.

Tom
