Warblers are beginning to arrive at Doodletown, Bear Mountain State Park, Rockland Co. On Wednesday (4/29/2015) morning my wife and I found:
Yellow-rumped Warbler Black-throated Green Warbler Palm Warbler Cerulean Warbler, FOS male singing half-heartedly, early arrival Black-and-white Warbler Louisiana Waterthrush Hooded Warbler FOS, male singing For the full Doodletown list: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S23129160 Later that day, at the Stony Point Battlefield State Historic Park, we observed a group of approximately 40 Bonaparte's Gull loafing on the Hudson River just off the point. Most were in breeding plumage. It is unusual to see them this far upriver.
