For anyone heading to or in Eastern LI, there was an immature Blue Grosbeak in a field along Town Lane in East Hampton. The bird was observed by me on Sunday in the late morning, and re-found later that day.
The field where it was seen is on the south side of Town Lane; the western-most portion of the field is close to the corner of Town Lane and Windmill Lane in Amagansett, NY. The fields are farmed by Quail Hill and extend south to the railroad track. I have had Blue Grosbeak in these fields in the fall for the last three years Karen Rubinstein East Hampton and New York City -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
