Calvert Vaux is an urban park overlooking Coney Island Creek in Brooklyn, with little pockets of various habitats. It is a Breeding Bird Atlas Priority Block, and Adelia is very familiar with the areas. We saw 31 species at Calvert Vaux, and 27 at Six Diamonds Ballfield, a recreational area adjacent to Calvert Vaux.
