*NY County Highlights (Fall season): *

Laughing Gull (3), Belted Kingfisher, Western Kingbird & Bobolink.

The Western Kingbird was spotted on the north side of Outlook Hill and was
moving from Slide Hill to Grassy Hill.

On the NYS eBird Hotspots page I've added a map in the 'Local Links'
section showing the location of the hills at the south end of Governors
Island. The ferry schedule can be accessed from the symbol of the ship
below the bar charts table on the same page. First ferry is at 10am which
is at South Ferry east of the Staten Island Ferry.
