When the trail down by the river is flooded, a walk along Riverside Drive will 
often turn up some good birds. Downstream toward Reedy Creek is probably a 
little more pedestrian-friendly. Also, the trail from the foot of the stairs 
that runs off to the left below the parking lot can be a nice little walk, 
especially when the thrushes start moving through - they like the open wooded 
hillsides along that trail.

Good birding,

I went down to 42nd St. this morning, but the river had swallowed up all but a 
short stretch of the path at the base of the tower stairs.  Instead I went up 
to Forest Hill Park to walk around.  A Louisiana Waterthrush was singing 
mightily at the stream just down from the lake.  There, too, was a beautiful 
Hooded Warbler, singing his heart out.  Not much else there, not even any 
Parulas or Yellow-throated Warblers.
