A Clay-colored Sparrow was continuing at Governors Island, a part of New York County (within N.Y. City) on Thursday, Sept. 26th, found again by the original finder plus another keen observer there.
For Central Park (in Manhattan, N.Y. County) alone, at least 20 species of Warblers were found on Thursday, 9/26, by observers on not-for-profit guided walks and-or walking independent of guides. Also found on Thursday were these thrush species - Veery, Wood Thrush, Swainsons Thrush, and Gray-cheeked Thrush, including all of those being seen within Central Park. Additionally at Central Park, Hooded Merganser continues as do Green-winged Teal, along with Wood Duck and other more-regular species this month. A Connecticut Warbler from Wed., 9/25 was confirmed for Inwood Hill Park in northern Manhattan, of course quite-separate to the bird many observers saw at Bryant Park about 8 miles to the south, and which latter warbler was seen again Thursday. Further reports for the county to come. Thanks to many keen, quiet, courteous observers and photographers for sightings and reports in non-X bird alerts as well as in eBird and to the Macaulay Library for archived media. Good birding to all, Tom Fiore manhattan -- (copy & paste any URL below, then modify any text "_DOT_" to a period ".")
