Central Park , in Manhattan, N.Y. City still had at least twenty species of migrant warblers as seen by many observers throughout that park on Saturday, May 23. Those warblers included still such species as Mourning, Hooded, Bay-breasted, Cape May, and at least 17 additional species of migrant warblers. Multiple Acadian and Yellow-bellied Flycatchers, along with at least 5 other species of flycatchers, some of which are annually-breeding species in Central Park, were seen, by multiple observers and careful listeners. Thrush species still being seen included Veery and even late-lingering Hermit Thrush, as well as fairly common now Swainsons and Gray-cheeked Thrushes. Wood Thrushes are also ongoing, with some potentially nesting in this park. Many other species of birds, totaling over 90 spp., seen by the multitude of observers, some birding into and thru the afternoon with rain, were found on Saturday alone at Central Park.
