A mid day visit to the cemetery yielded some new arrivals. The conditions
proved to be good enough for an impromptu hawk watch as well.
Highlights included:
Green Heron
Double-crested Cormorants (total of 63 all moving ENE)
Great Egrets (single group of 3 looking like they dropped into Prospect
Park)
Turkey Vulture (2)
Osprey (6 individuals, 2 were local birds)
Northern Harrier (adult male)
Laughing Gull (17)
Chimney Swift (2)
Ruby-throated Hummingbird
American Kestrel (5)
Merlin (4)
Northern Parula
Prairie Warbler
Good birding,
