December 24th, 2006: Cape May Warbler (first year female). First reported by Jeff Nulle on December 20th, just south of the 115th Street entrance to Riverside Park in Manhattan. It was seen feeding on tree sap coming from the holes that a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker had drilled. Very uncommon to see this species in NYC so late in the year, and *especially* unusual to see in this park.

  • December 24th, 2006: When not feasting on sap, the female Cape May Warbler would go after insects. She caught and devoured several large flies during the two hours I spent watching her.
