about 6:50 this evening. Toward the end of the day, it was foraging more over
the north side of the peninsula.

I have a question.
Could this be just a juvenile male Purple Martin who is in the process of
turning into an adult?
Last year, I suspected that Purple Martin was nesting in Brooklyn, somewhere
close to Prospect park.
On April 28, two of them were seen at the peninsula (south part of the park)

Ryan Zucker reports that the martin is currently foraging by Duck Island near
the eastern end of the lake, likely visible from the southern shore or the
Peninsula. Good luck to those who chase, and be vigilant for any audio
recording or dropped DNA sample opportunities in addition to photo

As far as I am aware, the martin has not yet put in an appearance this
morning. People are spread all around the lake searching, including where a
few swallows are perched at yesterday’s morning martin perch spot. Others

This morning, the *Progne *was perched in a tree at the NW corner of
Prospect Park Lake with a dozen Tree Swallows and a single Northern

the lake before

Well the second day after the martin houses went back up this season at Croton
Point Park a purple martin has been photographed. Nice to have them back albeit
not a Cuban / Caribbean / Sinaloan / or Grey-Breasted martin — but then we
don’t have Doug G up here!!
Good Spring (winter) birding

A group of birders is currently looking at the intriguing Progne martin in
Prospect Park. It is perched in a tree overhanging the NW corner of the
lake. Nice comparison showing its apparently relatively small size for a
