Extremely active at Greenwich Audubon particularly around the George P Bent Apple Orchard. Huge push of Tennessee Warblers with atleast 13 being a conservative estimate, one ORANGE CROWNED warbler which put in a brief appearance unfortunately in a private residential area, 1 female Cape May, male BTBlue, FOS Hermit Thrush, White Crowned Sparrow, Blue Headed Vireo and numerous groups of PINE SISKINS.

Hawks are moving as well so should be a great day of migration. Richard Aracil reports a Short Eared Owl 10 miles to our north over Chestnut Ridge Hawk Watch in NY so who knows what could come by.
