In past years, the number of rusties has peaked in March and April, and I'll be keeping an eye on the roost this spring as migration gets into gear. This early they are hit or miss. See dates below.
If anyone is interested in helping me count robins and blackbirds some evening (currently the best time is about 5:00 to 5:30 but as spring progresses and the sun sets later that will shift), send me an email and we could make arrangements to meet at Sunset Park to survey the chaos for a half hour or so, most evenings will work.
