I dropped by Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn in hopes of locating an item
dropped there yesterday (no luck.) What I did find was an extraordinary
number of Eastern Phoebes around the Crescent Water - I counted 30 around
the smallish pond. In one small 6 foot high weeping birch (I think) there
were 8 perched Phoebes as well as a Pine Warbler.
Also present were at least 6 Palm Warblers, 10 Tree Swallows, 2 Northern
Rough-winged Swallows and perhaps 2 more Pine Warblers. There was so much
activity it was difficult to get accurate counts - but it was hopping!
