[nysbirds-l] April 20th: Hooded Warbler in Riverside Park (Manhattan)
Hi All, Jeff Nulle just called to tell me he had beautiful singing male Hooded Warbler in the Women's Grove in Riverside Park around 2pm. The Women's Grove is the wood chip trail behind (east of) the Drip that starts at 116th Street and continues north, past the tennis courts. This area is also known as the Riverside Bird Sanctuary. Enter the wood chip path at 116th and continue north, past the green podium on your left. Soon afterwards on your right there is a large fallen tree that has been completely uprooted. The bird was singing in a green patch in that area. I would guess that the equivalent cross street would be 118-119th Street. If you encounter the paved path coming down from Riverside Drive, you have gone too far. Good luck if you go!

[nysbirds-l] Woodcocks at JBWR
Yesterday at 8PM we heard and saw a American Woodcock at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge in Queens, NY. They often appear at the edges of the brush in the mowed area just south of the parking lot as the light begins to disappear.
