A video of a hummingbird was recorded yesterday (11/16) by Barbara Davarros with the Randall’s Park Alliance in New York City and posted to Instagram. It was flagged by Tim Healy as a potential Black-chinned Hummingbird.
Bird was refound today (11/17) by Adam Cunningham, Brendan Fogarty, and Efua Peterson. Photos appear to confirm the ID, making it a NY State record. The bird keeps coming back regularly to the flowers by the bathrooms next to the Urban Farm on Randall’s Island. (40.7836117, -73.9260903) There is parking directly at the spot.
