Most spring migrating birds had passed through Central Park by this date, and few birds were singing in the Ramble. Nevertheless, the participants persevered and were rewarded with sightings of an Eastern Kingbird, two Green Herons, two Black-crowned Night-Herons, and thirteen warblers. It was mellow morning enjoyed by all.
