The best weather day of the washout holiday weekend revealed some really good birds even though it didn't sound like a very active Bird date. Nevertheless here were some reports.
On Lookout Hill South slope above the 3 shipping containers, the continuing Mourning Warbler revealed itself on the mid slope path. Hopefully it'll stick around for me tomorrow. Warblers appeared scant as migration wounds down but an interesting sighting like Blackburnian Warbler at Butterfly Meadow makes a day.
Over at Greenwood Cemetery, a surprising Eastern Bluebird at the Hill of Graves makes one wonder if it's breeding there. Keep an eye on it .
Mississippi Kites continues to make news. This afternoon , a high bird appeared over the Windsor Terrace neighborhood before entering Greenwood Cemetery airspace , over the Hill of Graves.
And last, in early evening at Brooklyn Bridge Park Pier 1 ferry dock, an immature Glaucous Gull flew over.

"There is symbolic as well as actual beauty in the migration of the birds, the ebb and flow of the tides, the folded bud ready for spring." — Rachel Carson
