- Reported Jul 15, 2025 07:37 by Forrest Wickman
- Prospect Park, Kings, New York

- Checklist: https://ebird.org/checklist/S260189573
- Media: 3 Photos
- Comments: "Flagged for date: Such an odd date that I'm not sure whether to put "late" or "early" or "dispersing," especially because it was a breeding male, and singing. According to eBird, only the second year this species has ever been recorded in Prospect Park in July, with the only previous reports being from "NYC Bird Report Data" in July 1998. Even more weirdly, it was a breeding male, and singing? On Hammerhead. Photos. Audio also available."
