I was in Central Park this am for the Japan Day festivities and to try for the continuing Kirtland's Warbler. I got the warbler at 8:15am at the usual spot on West Drive just north of 91st. next to the reservoir. It gave wonderful close views of course because I left my camera in the car. While waiting for the warbler I also had some Eastern Pewees, a probable Least Flycatcher, a gorgeous male Bay-breasted Warbler, plus many of the usual warbler species being seen. After the JD festivities I took a stroll around that area and the Ramble and had a wonderful male Cape May Warbler singing from a lone fir tree, several Canada Warblers, 2 Wilson's Warblers, a couple of Indigo Buntings, plus many of the warbler species being seen. Even with the miserable weather it was a very good day bird wise. Andrew Andrew v. F.
