[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.
