Hey everyone it was good to see you all in the park today. Congrats to Angie and Ryan on their upcoming wedding.

Some Fifteen birders a few new faces among them met at the Pergola on a perfect fall morning. Highlights were solitary sandpiper, 2 cape may warbler fall Baypol extravaganza and a sky clouded over with swifts. Well maybe about 50 swifts. I think  Time to say goodbye to warblers and hello to sparrows over the next few days.

Ok coastal loop trip tomorrow.

Best,

D

patchy islands

Fall birding in Prospect Park has been erratic, thanks to a season of wet weather, few favorable winds and likely not being the lucky spot seeing waves of birds. So its been patchy birding at best. Three Sisters Islands and the nearby mainland open woods is I think this fall's most productive area.

On Dennis' regular Saturday walk,it was the case of Three Sisters providing the best numbers for warblers this morning. Though I didn't get all the species names when i swung by, members of the group dropped hints of Cape May and Yellow Rumped Warblers. I was lucky when I ran into Ed,Ryan and Angie stationed opposite the three islands, getting close looks of a NORTHERN PARULA in the tree next to us across from the islands.A BELTED KINGFISHER flew out of the islands strait and perched on a limb  on the western island. I heard also that  a NORTHERN WATERTHRUSH  walked under the tree earlier. Dennis will hopefully produce a report later.

The rest of the morning went quiet even as we circled the lake towards the rink green roof. A nice pickup after Dennis tweeted it, a SOLITARY SANDPIPER on the black plastic covering at the lake edge across from the Well house Drive three shipping containers.

A northwest wind prevails tonight, a real cold snapper  with temps dipping into the the low 50's. Could more birds come ?

Hi Peter,

It was a beautiful day today, cool, dry and with a slight breeze. It seemed that a lot of birds had been swept out of the park last night, but there were some remaining small groups particularly in the southern end of the Park. 

We ended up with 46 species. Highlights were a Sharp-shinned Hawk chasing after an American Kestrel, some very cooperative, low warblers including Cape May Warbler, Pine, Blackpoll, Magnolia and lots of Northern Parulas.

Here's the list. I'll post a couple of photos on the facebook site.

Best regards,
Tom

Hello again,

  We desperately need volunteers for the coming Saturday, Sept. 29th, at the Return-a-Gift pond planted areas. Please don't let the Mugwort, Oriental Bittersweet and Porcelain Berry overwhelm all of your good work. We have a weeding method where you can concentrate on one species of the invaders at a time. 

We can meet at the small parking lot at the main entrance to Floyd Bennett Field at 9:00 AM. Tools and gloves will be supplied, If you only work for the morning, that will be fine. We need any help you can give. Thank you.

Best regards, Ron

Hi Peter,

We experienced a major change of the walk today....weather....!  Good weather. And good bird activity. We had 62 species including 16 warbler species.
Highlights included 2 Tennessee Warblers, Blackburnian, Blackpoll, lots of Parulas, Pine, Palm, Least and Acadian Flycatchers (modified ID after looking at photos; we thought maybe it was a yellow-bellied but was Acadian...), a stunning Blue-headed Vireo, 2 falcon species: American Kestrel and Merlin, Osprey, both Cooper's and Sharp-shinned Hawks, and the remaining juvenal Great Cormorant.

Here's the list.

Best regards,
Tom
