Forwarding a post on ebirdsnyc (see below). Lark Sparrow is a very good bird for Queens. This should have made the list serve a lot sooner; I hope others could get out there and look for it.
Good Birding! Andrew Baksh Queens NY www.birdingdude.blogspot.com ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Peter Reisfeld <drpi...@yahoo.com> Date: Tue, Oct 2, 2012 at 2:43 PM Subject: [ebirdsnyc] Kissena park- Lark sparrow-No. Blue grosbeak consolation To: Ebirds <ebirds...@yahoogroups.com> ** I stopped by at the Kissena Corridor at about 1PM on my way to the city to see if I could get the lark sparrow found yesterday by Eric Miller in the field between the community gardens and the hospital. By the time I arrived it was pretty rainy, but I ventured in anyway as I was short for time. There were good numbers of birds with many indigo buntings east of 146 St and many palm warblers in the fields west. I could not relocate the lark sparrow. The best bird, as is sometimes the case, was the first one I saw on entering at 146 St. As I waited under a tree for the rain to subside I spotted a blue grosbeak just east of 146. Looking forward to another good season at Kissena.
