[nysbirds-l] Alley Pond & Kissena Parks, Queens - CT Warbler and more
After a slow start from 7AM to 9AM in Alley Pond this morning, the mid-morning activity was good. Notable species included Winter Wren, Brown Creeper, Red-breasted Nuthatch, Dark-eyed Junco, Cape May Warbler, Blue-headed Vireo and another Philadelphia Vireo. Its been a great September for Philly V's at least in Alley Pond. Also good numbers of both Kinglets. These birds seen with Eric Miller, Bob and Coleen Veltri, and Howie. Around noon, I tried the asphalt path that goes through the Long Island Expressway/Cross Island Parkway interchange starting at Douglaston Parkway (across from the shopping mall). I observed a Connecticut Warbler just north of the northernmost ramp where the asphalt path turns left down into the east Alley marsh. The bird appeared to be an immature. I got a brief but good look at the bird at the top of the bushes on the left side of the path opposite a fenced enclosure before it disappeared into the brush. I was unable to find the bird again over the next half hour and when I returned a couple of hours later. Birds observed this afternoon in Kissena Park with Eric Miller and Coleen Veltri included Prairie Warbler and Yellow-bellied Sapsucker.
