A very small area of oaks on both sides of Parker Hill Ave., near the entrance to Iroquois Woods, was the place to be. A BLUE GROSBEAK, a Yellow-throated Vireo, and fourteen warbler species were in those oaks. The birds were often low due to the heaviness of the air. I birded from 10:50-2:00:

Sorry for the late post, as stuff happens! I birded here and at the neighboring McLaughlin Woods from 9:05-12:05. The rarity was one of the first birds I found, at 9:15. Unfortunately, it hung around for ten minutes and peeled off towards perhaps Leverett Pond with several Yellow-rumped Warblers. It started as on and off light showers for twenty minutes:

After birding at Hall's Pond in Brookline, where I saw a Black and White Warbler, I found myself walking along Crowningshield St. and Elba Rd. I was not birding at this time. I was quite surprised to hear a Blue-gray Gnatgcatcher on a sidewalk tree. I whipped out my binoculars and saw the bird. Then, a few steps away, a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker flew into an evergreen tree at the next property.

Subject: [BostonBirds] Upcoming Millenium Park Bird Walk: Sat., Apr. 19 |
Hi everyone,
I want to alert you all to a BBC-sponsored bird walk at *Millenium Park,
next Sat., Apr. 19, 2025 at 8 am*. (Reposting because I'd left out a couple
important details from the announcement, sorry!!)
I'll be co-leading a walk Michael McCarthy where we will observe resident
birds and spring migrants in a unique urban habitat that is a favorite for
many bird species, including uncommon and rare birds. Birders of all levels
will enjoy this walk.
The trails are flat and easy to walk.
We may do an optional 30 minute trip extension to an adjacent location such
as West Roxbury High School Marsh. Be sure to wear a hat and waterproof
footwear and pack water.
*Registration: *The walk is free but preregistration is required. Please
preregister by emailing <neil.c......>
*Directions*: Millenium Park is located at 300 Gardner St, Boston, MA. Once
you enter the park, turn left and then you will quickly see a small sign at
the first left turn labelled Canoe Launch. Follow that road to the end.
Meet in the parking lot nearest the canoe launch, at end of lot.
Hope to see you there!
