This is an area situated in built-up suburbia and along the Delaware River which itself acts as a migrant corridor. Here are some highlights: PHOEBES, RUBY and GOLDEN-CROWNED KINGLETS with RUBY predominating. Mainly YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERS which is normal for this time of year. Both "Eastern" and "Western" PALM WARBLERS, 2 NASHVILLES, BLACKPOLLS, and assorted other late birds. I think the grand total from everyone there was 14 species of warbler. Many sparrows around also.
