It seems like migration is moving along but slowly. Some new arrivals the last few days include an early House Wren at The Celery Farm, a singing male Common Yellowthroat in Richard DeKorte Park, a flyover Laughing Gull in DeKorte and Chimney Swifts in a few locations around the county. Female Red-winged Blackbirds have arrived, Swamp Sparrows have been heard singing and a large flock of Cedar Waxwings was seen in NJ Meadowlands.
Duck numbers in NJ Meadowlands have been dropping every day with Wigeon, Bufflehead and Ring-necked Ducks as the only migrants still around. All the rarities have left. Red-necked Grebe and Horned Grebe at Lake Tappan were the only rare birds reported today. A single male Boat-tailed Grackle was seen in NJ Meadowlands Harrier Meadow yesterday.
