11/11 Charlie Barnard just called me (8:40am) from Long Beach in Stratford to report he is looking at an AUDUBON'S Yellow- rumped Warbler, among 3 Myrtles. He noted bright yellow throat and it lacks a pale supercilium. It is in the dune shrubbery along the right edge of the parking lot about 75 yards down from the entrance booth. He'll try to obtain photos.

The AUDUBON'S WARBLER is still at Long Beach as of 10am, being viewed and photographed by 6 of us. It's foraging in low dune vegetation not too far past end of lot.
Beach gate is locked due to storm damage, but its OK to park on the east side of Oak Bluff Ave and walk in.
Thank you Charlie for a great find!

The AUDUBON'S Warbler just took off and flew high and away to the north, till out of view. It flew in the direction of the corner of Access Rd. and Rt 113, near Access Pond.
Perhaps the McKinney NWR RR trail would be a good place to search.
