[nysbirds-l] Prospect Park/Kings County: 4 warblers +
Although the overnight winds were not from a favorable direction the diminished wind speed allowed for some new arrivals in the park. Most notable were the increased numbers of Yellow-rumped and Palm Warblers. A few Pine Warblers are still around and a bright male Black & White Warbler was feeding low along a peninsula path. Other new arrivals included House Wren on Lookout Hill, Swamp Sparrow on peninsula "thumb" and a singing Purple Finch between lamppost 249 and the perimeter road.

[nysbirds-l] Prospect Park (Kings ) April 14th
The second southern US species ( not native to these parts ) appeared on the current southern warm flow, a SWALLOW TAILED KITE that flew over the Lullwater at 9 am , observed by Jennifer Plummer Kepler, who took a photo of the species. A beautiful bird , very diagnostic and a perfect gliding smooth flying bird that marks this species. An awesome find for the park. See Jennifer's photo in the link she provide which is seen on on the Brooklyn Bird Club Facebook where it was initially posted. http://snapshotofnature.blogspot.com/2014/04/awesome-sightings.html The other big news is the reappearance of the YELLOW THROATED WARBLER at the same location as yesterday behind the Pools (mainly Upper). This time the bird cooperated for a multitude of birders seeing it low , even on the ground as I witnessed it . Thanks to Shane Blodgett for today's first report. When I saw it, it was in the Sweetgum tree just over the Upper Pool back view; then a short while later, it flew across the path to the back slope woods. Its been seen well and low for most of the afternoon. A new first of season warbler , PRAIRIE WARBLER was spotted by Ed Crowne along the Falkills Falls path , just south of the falls, on the downslope to the right if one heads for the Nethermead.Its been up high in the beech trees , and low earlier. The other report , over at Greenwood Cemetery where Doug Gochfeld been skywatching , reported BROADWINGED HAWK and 2 COMMON RAVENS.

[nysbirds-l] Prospect Park ( Kings), VARIED THRUSH returns 3/13
Rafael Campos found the VARIED THRUSH at the Ambergill Pool, in the Ravine. Later, about 30 minutes, I ventured over there and found the celebre thrush on a dead log next to a boulder hidden by fallen dead tree brush, along the back shore of the Ambergill Pool. This is the pool where birders watch from the Esdale Bridge birds bathing in the creek that empties into the pool, just east from the Picnic House. However in later afternoon, it was not relocated. Again , my guess is that this bird explores the whole ridge, going up slope and out of sight, maybe in its strange environment , its skulking more Other good birds to report are 5 WHITE-WINGED CROSSBILLS and our first EASTERN PHOEBE for Prospect. see my blog for details www.prospectsightings.blogspot.com and the google map.
