RE: [nysbirds-l] Virginia's Warbler @ Alley Pond Park Queens County (YES) reported by another birder....
Updated the map once again to show approximate locations of sightings Nov. 28 (one of), Dec. 2, and today. I have marked December dates as Dn. I'm thinking that Andrew was not including today's sighting in the range expansion. If I'm interpreting it correctly, it's between previous locations. One thing I have concluded by looking at the latest map - there are about 15 Virginia's Warblers in the park. No, that's not right. Then even I would be seeing Virginia's Warbler. Well, I picked the wrong spot at 1:00 today, except if I embrace the consolation prizes - a pair of ravens flying roughly over "PB" and a Red Bat flying for an extended period of time over the ball field at D2. If interested, pictures can be seen at http://www.stevewalternature.com/ on the birds recent work page. I know it's not a bird, but close enough. It felt like trying to photograph swifts.

Perhaps a good strategy when searching in groups would be to split up and take chunks of the areas it has been reported recently. Keep those reports coming, there are many birders who have tried several times and still have not seen it yet. Good Birding!

Hi, I am thinking of trying for the Virginia's Warbler on Wednesday (5th December), this will be my first opportunity since it was found to get there. If anyone else is thinking of trying that day, send me an email as it seems like team work may be the best option.
