RE: [nysbirds-l] Central Park, NYC: PROTHONOTARY WARBLER

2015-04-27 Thread Anders Peltomaa 
Hi all,
I've been receiving a couple emails, after my report of a Prothonotary
Warbler in Central Park, questioning me on whether the bird I saw was the
one released earlier in the day (3+ hours) by the Wild Bird Fund. Short
answer, I don't know. I was at work all day long.

I'm assuming that the implied question  is, whether a sighting of a
rare/unusual bird is countable after the release of a bird of the same
species in the same county. What do you think?

Here are the ABA counting rules:

good birding,

A Prothonotary warbler has been found by the Turtle Pond about 20 minutes ago 
by Jake (surname?). The bird is pretty active flying back and forth across the 
pond.
Good luck if you try for it.
