[nysbirds-l] Belmont Lake State Park (Suffolk Co.)--actual songbird migration!
A thus far lackluster Spring migration in Suffolk County finally took a turn for the better at Belmont Lake State Park this morning. I found 14 species of warbler, highlighted by BAY-BREASTED (1) and CANADA (2), plus multiples of N. Parula, Blackpoll, Magnolia, Black-throated Blue and B Other notable migrants included LINCOLN'S SPARROW, Yellow- billed Cuckoo, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Indigo Bunting, Scarlet Tanager (m. and f.), E. Wood Pewee and Red-eyed Vireo. I birded Southard's Pond Park later in the morning, which was relatively quiet, but still yielded Blackburnian and Black-throated Green warblers, as well as a Spotted Sandpiper. Pete Morris was also there and found Black-billed Cuckoo and Orchard Oriole, birds with which I was unable to connect. Heard a Scarlet Tanager singing in my yard when I got home too.
