Today I birded the Newburgh Waterfront, from approx. 3:45 to 5PM. Gull number
were good with the highlights being a first winter Glaucous Gull and 2 first
winter Iceland Gulls.
Two other county highlight from early in the week were found by Matt Zeitler.
On Tuesday, 1/27, Matt had 6 Lapland Longspur on Missionland Rd. in Pine
Island. On Saturday, 1/31, 4 Longspurs remained. On Thursday, 1/29, Matt
located a Barn Owl flying on Oil City Rd.
Locally: My Father (Ken McDermott), reported that he and others from the John
Burroughs Club had at least 13 Short-eared Owls today at Shawangunk Grasslands
(Galeville).
Good Birding, Curt McDermott
