I found a CONNECTICUT WARBLER earlier this afternoon (~12:40) at Hoyt Farm in Commack. It flushed from dense mugwort and perched up nicely for a couple of minutes within the locust grove in the center of the field adjacent to a dried up ephemeral pond. There were loads of sparrows--primarily White-throated (100+) and Swamp (~20)--and abundant Common Yellowthroats (~15) in this field and in other areas of the park. Other notable finds included 1 House Wren, 2 Blue-headed Vireos, several Y-b Sapsuckers, and 2 Hermit Thrushes.
