We had nine species of warblers at Southard's Pond this morning, highlighted by a singing Hooded Warbler. The warbler was last heard in the woods east of the Babylon Elementary School on Park Ave. at about 10:30AM. Also present were Pine, Palm, Black-throated Green, Ovenbird, Yellow-rumped, Yellow, Black & White, and Common Yellowthroat. Other birds observed were Gray Catbird, House Wren, Blue-headed and White-eyed Vireos, and Rusty Blackbird.
A search for the previously reported Swallow-tailed Kite at Robert Moses State Park was unsuccessful. The bird had been reported flying west from Field 2; birders are currently driving Ocean Parkway looking for the bird.
