Friday, Jan. 15th - The Greater White-fronted Goose (of the Greenland-breeding form) has been moving about within Central Park quite a lot, along with a flock of Canada Geese; most recent and last location there for the White-fronted was on the North Meadow (where at least Canada Geese have been visiting regularly but unpredictably for some weeks). The rare goose had also had dips into the Lake, the reservoir, & the Pool, all in just 24 hours or so.
Elsewhere in Manhattan, a Western Tanager continued at and adjacent to Carl Schurz Park, but was often elusive as well on Friday, and an Orange-crowned Warbler also remained at Carl Schurz Park, that being along East End Ave., East 84th to 90th Streets, main entry at E. 86th. Many other birds also lingered around N.Y. County in the mild mid-January conditions. good birding to all, Tom Fiore manhattan -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm 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://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
