[nysbirds-l] Ovenbird in Brooklyn
This afternoon I ran across an Ovenbird at Brooklyn Bridge Park. It was initially on one of the paved/stone paths before grudgingly going off a few feet into the leaf litter as I passed it. There's a cell phone photo here: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S26142014 Good Birding -Doug Gochfeld.
