At Central Park, in Manhattan N.Y. City for Thursday, April 11th -
At least 8 migratory American warbler species were present, a few species still in good numbers after Tuesday and Wednesday having had such strong arrivals. The 8 warbler species seen on April 11 at Central Park include Northern Parula - singing male, photos taken, Yellow Warbler, still quite early, roaming parts of the north end assuming just 1, Black-and-white Warblers - 2, Pine Warblers - minimum of ten, Palm Warblers - minimum of 35, in many areas of the park, Louisiana Waterthrushes -multiple locations again on Thursday, Myrtle Warblers - far fewer than Pine or, in particular Palm for all of the park on Thursday. The lingering Ovenbird was also still present where it has been, in the southeast sector of the park.
An excellent selection of sparrows and members of that group were again found, and Rusty Blackbirds also were again seen. Red-throated as well as Common Loon were each present on the Central Park reservoir into the afternoon of April 11th, as was Hooded Merganser, and other lingering waterfowl. Multiple N. Rough-winged Swallows were seen again and a few Tree Swallows as well for Thursday in the park. A lot more birds could be mentioned, as well. Many observers were out thru most of the day, with multiple not-for-profit guided bird walks also going at various times and locations within the park. Thanks to the many who contributed sightings and also photographs of a wide variety of these birds.
Good birding to all,
Tom Fiore
