[nysbirds-l] Lots of warblers at Wave Hill, Bronx

Very busy morning on my monthly Wave Hill bird walk (2nd Sunday of every month, free). We had very few participants, presumably due to the rainy weather earlier this AM or to Mother's Day plans, but it was their loss as it was a wonderful morning of birding, approaching fallout conditions. We

Here is a photo of the Chuck-wills-widow that was found by someone in the Ramble area of Central Park today. I have never seen a Chuck or Whip roost so low before, great views. Today was a stellar birding day with a wet beginning, but the bird activity made up for all the early rain.
