[nysbirds-l] Croton Point YB Cuckoo and Blackpoll
Highlights near the croton point landfill today included a Yellow-billed Cuckoo, flushed from the path below the landfill on the southeast side. It flew into the vines nearby and was vocalizing. I got some good photos. Also seen was a late Blackpoll Warbler foraging low in mugwort and grasses on the south slope of the landfill. Horned Larks, American Tree Sparrows and a large (33 low estimate) flock of pipits. We did not see any Snow Buntings or Longspur.
