While watching and listening from the window I also picked up two other species for my list of species recorded from the apartment since April 1st: Green Heron and Yellow Warbler. This brought my spring apartment list to 41 species. It was also a very nice day birding in the park, though Hilary and Diane said it was not as busy as yesterday when they were in. Nevertheless, I recorded 61 species in the park with Common Yellowthroat, Magnolia Warbler and Tennessee Warbler. These, with the Marsh Wren brought my Inwood list since April 1st to 106 species. The following list of 65 species are the birds found on our walk in the park with a few additional birds I saw from my apartment window.
In the category of nonavian animals seen there was a Red-eared Slider swimming in the shallows of the bay north of the soccer fields and a Muskrat swimming in the shipping canal seen from my apartment.
