Whoops, didn't finish that post..... ebird checklist with some pics for Inwood Ballfields: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S9517991
At Swindler Cove Park, we had 2 ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLERS, seen feeding together simultaneously on the fence between the parking lot behind the elementary school and Sherman Creek. Also here were continuing RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET, 2 BLACK-CROWNED NIGHT HERON, and 2 KILLDEER. The ebird checklist with some pics for swindler: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S9518116 At Bryant Park, we had the living YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT, 1 OVENBIRD, 2 CATBIRD (north and south plantings around the ice rink), 1 HERMIT THRUSH, and most startlingly, an AMERICAN WOODCOCK pointed out to us by a birder named melody, which was sitting on the window sill of the ground level window just south of the main entrance to the New York Public Library. ebird list for Bryant: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S9518195 In Central Park, we had the RED-HEADED WOODPECKER at Hallett Nature Sanctuary, right overhead from in front of the entrance to the sanctuary, difficult to find until it chattered noisily. 2 WOOD DUCK were on the pond nearby. We failed to track down any of the other previously reported half-hardy birds in the area with fading daylight and time. The other somewhat notable bird in central was 2 PIED BILLED GREBE at the sw part of the Reservoir.
