23 September 2012


Observer: Rafael Campos R

The heavy rain brought something very nice to our backyard. Around 3 pm, a single individual of Pine Warbler was observed foraging in the oak tree in the backyard.

This sps is a new record for our backyard list. It is # 91, since me moved here in Dec 2000.

Brooklyn is great birding, even when it is raining!!

Kingsboider note: Rafael lives in east Park Slope near Flatbush Ave.
