Somewhat anti-climatic after several of the good sightings reported today, but
maybe of minor interest: After viewing the Swainson's Hawk this morning we
visited nearby Coxsackie grasslands, where there were several sparrows,
including an adult and immature White-crowned.
At Mine Road in Orange County there was a Lincoln's Sparrow near the small
bridge towards the southern end of the road, a bit north of the gate, near the
bluebird boxes. The northwestern end of Mine Road is under construction for a
new headquarters, which destroyed the habitat where Golden-winged warblers were
seen in years past, although the rest of the road remains the same.
We also visited Hook Mountain from about 3 to 4. They had over 100 birds of
various species, highlighted by a late Broad-winged and a Red-shouldered,
neither seen by us.
