Subject: [OneidaBirds] Townsend's Solitaire on Point Peninsula
Yesterday Mike Stewart found a Townsend's Solitaire on Point Peninsula in
Jefferson County, and this morning Mike and Bill Purcell relocated it late in
the morning. I showed up an hour or so after they first saw it today and was
treated to fabulous views over an extended period of time. To get there, take
County Rt. 57 onto Point Peninsula, passing over the isthmus and heading toward
Long Point State Park. Rt. 57 will make a sharp right turn, but stay straight
onto State Park Road for a short distance (about 100 yards). This afternoon the
solitaire spent most of its time in the cedar stand on the right side of the
road (near a blue house back in the cedars), but also used the scrubby habitat
across the road as well. There was a lot of bird activity on Point Peninsula
today, and my non-solitaire highlight was an adult female Barrow's Goldeneye
near Point Peninsula Village late in the afternoon.
