Central Park, East Side, with Janet Wooten, 5/30/2023

Registrar: Janet Wooten
Participants: 5
Weather: Sunny and clear, 57–65F, moderately breezy
Bird Species: 28

The final walk of the season took place on a sunny and mild morning. Birds of several species, including a Baltimore Oriole, were quietly building nests, while Warbling Vireos laid claim to territories with their songs. Among the highlights were a surprise flyover by an Osprey, an Eastern Kingbird at Turtle Pond, and Wood Thrushes in the Ramble. At the Point, a Blackpoll sang out, perhaps the last warbler of the season to leave.
