All,

I birded NY Monuments for about an hour this morning. The predominant warbler by far was Magnolia. Others included American Redstart, Chestnut-sided, Common Yellowthroat, Blackburnian, Black and White and Pine. There were many Red-breasted Nuthatches. My best bird was a single Lincoln's Sparrow that I found along the southeast edge of the field while looking for a certain skulking warbler which I did not find. Other birds were Yellow-billed Cuckoo (I remain skunked on Black-billed), Yellow-throated and White-eyed Vireos singing, Red-eyed Vireo, Scarlet Tanager, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Eastern Wood-Pewee and the other likely suspects.
