Great numbers of migrants fell into Prospect Park overnight and continued falling into the early morning. All the birders who could be out were in the park today and were rewarded with some great new birds for the year and great numbers of some of the earlier migrants; hundreds of Yellow-rumps, tens of Blue-headed Vireos, lots of Palms and 3 Louisianna Waterthrushes.
New for the year: Yellow-throated Vireo, Lincoln Sparrow, Blue-winged Warblers, Prairie Warblers, Black-throated Green and Black-throated Blue Warblers, Ovenbirds, Veery, Worm-eating Warbler, Nashville Warbler and an out of sequence Ring-necked Duck.
