Hi Peter
Walk around the park this eve. Saw my f o s Great Egret at Duck Island, later saw 2 roosting on southern shore of Lake. My f o s Osprey was nice, hunting around the Lullwater and the New Islands. Terrace Bridge had some bug swarms & was very active w small birds inc. many Palm & Pine warblers, kinglets, BG Gnatcatcher & Swamp Sparrow. No phoebes, which was weird. A single Red-necked Grebe showed itself on the Lake later, and as I was leaving I had a beautiful low-flying Merlin coming off the Peninsula over the ice rink and into Prospect Lefferts Gardens.
Cheers
Adam
