Apologies if the following appears in this list-serve shortly - hello Queens County birders, how about a location within large Forest Park in Queens, N.Y. City for the Townsends Warbler thats apparently now understood to have lingered for weeks there, and refound a few times by now, and by 12/29 seen by multiple observers. Thanks!
—- The 7th day in a row In Bronx County NYC, for the lingering MacGillivrays Warbler that has been seen Fri. morning by multiple obs, in the area of parking lot at southwest cor. of West 231 St, and Independence Ave., also seen, and heard chipping from a weedy lot immediately west away from that parking lot - these sites can be viewed from and next to W. 231 St, a public NYC street. Observers are still coming to find this Bronx warbler from multiple other counties, and the same will be so for any findable, lingering vagrant, such as the lingering Townsends Warbler in Queens. For the Riverdale-Bronx locations, please do not walk or drive into the property of the large nursing home, birders have specifically been requested to no-longer go in to those private areas. It seems the MacGillivrays has been showing a bit more near 231 St, south side of that street. Good birding to all, Tom Fiore manhattan -- (copy & paste any URL below, then modify any text "_DOT_" to a period ".")
