Yellow-billed Cuckoo
The spring migration is winding down but there are still some fun birds to be found in the park, including this Yellow-billed Cuckoo in the northern end of Central Park.
Three Eyasses at 100th Street and 3rd Avenue
After a few weeks, eyasses grow up enough to be fully seen on a nest. So, at 100th Street and 3rd Avenue, what started out as one eyass being seen has become three. They look great and were fun to watch.
Warbling Vireo Nest
On my last Linnaean Society of New York Central Park walk of the spring 2019 season, one of the stops was Warbling Vireo nest. It is in a tree about 100 feet east of the Maintenance Building in the Ramble. It looks like it was getting finishing before being used this year.

St. John Eyass
Robert’s Morningside Hawks blog reported seeing an eyass on the St. John the Divine nest earlier in the week, so I made a stop there on Sunday. I also saw a single eyass. The nest is hard to view, so it might have a sibling we might get to see later in the season.
Riverside Church Peregrine Falcons
I made a detour on my way back from Randalls Island to Riverside Church to see how the Peregrine Falcons were doing. It was a bit too early to see the youngsters, but I did get to see the mother outside of the nest and saw the father flying around the church.
