I was out at Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens County today chasing some of the lingering rarities previously reported there. Both the previously reported Lark Sparrow and Clay-colored Sparrow were still present with junco flocks, though they were with different groups of juncos. The two Cackling Geese were also feeding on the ground with the large flock of Canada Geese; nearby was a lone Snow Goose. Also seen was a Pine Warbler and two adult Bald Eagles soaring overhead.
