Enrico Leonardi briefly spotted a Western Tanager in Green-Wood Cemetery a couple of days ago but it wasn’t re-found that day. Rob Jett re-located it a little while ago today and it is still present with many birders attending. It is in-and-out of view and mobile within a couple of hundred yard radius around these coordinates: 40.6511892, -73.9856404 (Near Vine and Cypress Aves.)
The only entrances open to car traffic on weekdays right now are the ones at 5th Ave. and 25th St., and the Sunset Park entrance, both on the north side of the cemetery. Good birding, Doug Gochfeld.
