Albeit a slow day today, there were some good pickings ,both in Prospect and Greenwood cemetery. I opted for the latter to have some peace and quiet.
For my excursion to the cemetery, I was glad to pick up a few nice birds. For example: along the Bluffside path at Sylvan waters north ridge, a female Purple Martin flew low thru the trees. It later continued seen higher by birders over Sylvan. A prize though found by Bob W was a female Hooded Warbler at Sylvans south shore,within the yew tree grove,thanks to Mike S and Joshua for their help.
At Dellwater, Paul S found a Louisiana Waterthush. About the time I saw the water thrush, a pretty Red breasted nuthatch and an accompanying Chipping sparrow visited the waters edge.
Flocks of Double crested cormorants flew over Sylvan Water in a steady stream.
Meanwhile,two holdovers in Prospect attracted the most attention. Both Evening Grosbeak continue at Dongan Oak monument and the roving Protho
notary warbler moving along the Lull water wounding up at last report the Peninsula point.
