Hi All, I just got back from Central Park, where after about an hour and a half of walking around Maintenance Meadow and the area, with help from Andrew Baksh, Seth Ausubel, Anders Peltomaa, Mike Bryant and others, the BLACK-THROATED GRAY WARBLER put in a brief appearance at about 8:30. It initially showed up along the edge of the fence along the main overgrown area of the meadow, and worked it's way north and west into the weedy area south of the path that one would take from the Maintenance Shed to Belvedere Castle. an ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER was foraging in the same area. It foraged here for about two minutes before moving off towards Tupelo meadow. It seems this bird forages in a loop that entails the area around the gill, to Evodia Field, through Maintenance Meadow etc.--Seth said he was pretty sure that he had the bird quickly fly by him at the gill, and towards maintenance where we relocated the bird about a minute later. Someone also said the bird was photographed at Evodia yesterday, so checking that area would likely be a good idea.
