Yesterday was a good day to see Bay-breasted Warblers in Central Park as there were plenty around! They tend to be less numerous than some of the other warbler species. #birdcpp #NaturePhotography #BirdsOfbluesky #CentralPark #wildlife #centralparkbirds #birds #birdsseenin2026 #urbanbirds

This Nashville Warbler gave great views at the Bathing Rock in Central Park yesterday.

No, sir, Mr. Bicknell's Thrush, I bow to you! This uncommon visitor to Central Park is unfortunately listed as Vulnerable by the IUCN due to habitat loss. #birdcpp #NaturePhotography #BirdsOfbluesky #CentralPark #wildlife #centralparkbirds #birds #birdsseenin2026 #urbanbirds

Wilson's Warblers are likely the most frenetic warbler we get in Central Park, as they constantly flit amongst the foliage for insects. Rarely do you see one stop to enjoy the roses, as this one did for a few moments. #BirdsOfbluesky #CentralPark #centralparkbirds #birds #birdsseenin2026 #wildlife

More of Central Park's peak migration avian eye-candy, seen yesterday.

Nice to see this Eastern-whip-poor-will in Central Park today! This had been my CP nemesis bird until last year, when I saw two of them. This now makes 3 or 4, depending on if this is the same bird seen last week in the same area. #BirdsOfbluesky #CentralPark #wildlife #birds #birdsseenin2026

It looks like the creek by the Davis Center, in Central Park, may have a new resident! This groundhog was voguing it up and going nom nom to all the new growth along the creek. The Conservancy's gardeners won't be happy, but what a cutie! #birdcpp #NaturePhotography #CentralPark #wildlife #groundhog

Things were just ducky on Central Park's reservoir today. L to R, our uncommon visitor, the American Wigeon, Ring-necked Duck, female and male Common Merganser. #birdcpp #NaturePhotography #BirdsOfbluesky #CentralPark #wildlife #centralparkbirds #springmigration #birds #nybirds #nikon

I'm a bit late to the party, but I was finally able to get to Brooklyn to see the city's first ever record of a Trumpeter Swan. It's gotten very cozy with a Mute Swan, which, though common in our area, was introduced and is from Europe and Asia. #birds #birdsofbluesky #nature #wildlife #nikon

A nice sunset tonight in the Big Apple. #sunsets #newyorkcity

Three Cackling Geese, the first ever reported in Central Park, have been reported the past three days and I was finally able to see one of them today. Also, a shot of one of the continuing female Common Mergansers at the Reservoir. #birdcpp #BirdsOfTwitter #CentralPark #birds #birdsseenin2026
