Central Park NYC Bird Walk on Sunday, July 13, 2014 On today's bird walk in Central Park led by Dr. Robert DeCandido we saw the following:
Blackpoll Warbler - adult male in alternate (breeding) plumage at Tupelo Field - new for the season. Black-and-white Warbler - two females together on the west side of Mugger's Woods - same birds as yesterday. Before the walk Bob & I saw the American Redstart again at the Maintenance Field. Carine spotted a fledgling Warbling Vireo begging for food from an adult - Mugger's Woods. Two young Northern Flickers were visible in the nest at the Gill Overlook, attended by both parents. Adults Barn Swallows fed two young ones on the Point. A Blue Jay pair feeding a young fledgling at the Summer House (Brad). Eastern Kingbird at the Gill Overlook (Carine). Cedar Waxwing west of Iphigene's Walk (Meredith). Other common summer birds. Here's a photo of one of the young House Wrens that Bob & I saw before the walk at the Summer House Meadow: http://www.agpix.com/view_caption.php?image_id=686501&photog=1 Waiting for the next cold front, Deborah Allen -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
