- Comments: "Flagged for date: On the early side, and maybe the first recorded in Brooklyn so far this year, but sadly not a vagrant Gray-Breasted Martin despite my attempts to turn it into one 😂. Circling the south side of the lake in the early morning—seen from Hammerhead as it mostly favored the airspace above Three Sisters—though it sounds like it may have moved on after that. Photos, including one that also shows a fly moments before the martin gobbled
