Tom, I was at the Rondout Reservoir this morning and had an adult and
juvenile. I am also aware of at least a couple in Wurtsboro. There was a pair
at the Bashakill for a couple of months, but they seemed to finally move on,
water was exceptionally high in May and June. John Haas

Thank you. With that said, while South of Ulster Cty but still North of the
city, Rockefeller State Park had two last weekend when I hiked the little
streams and lake.
Best,
Jonathan

If memory serves it was a tough winter in the Southeastern states with freezes
It may be that this species and other continental wintering species took a hit
that has been exasperated by this springs monsoons in the Northeastern States
Birds rise above it all

Hello TomI live in Potsdam, St. Lawrence County and I have a large swamp on my
land and I am sorry to say I have noticed a lack of Kingfishers on my property,
as well as at other locations where I look for them each year. St.Lawrence
County has numerous wetland areas that I frequently visit to look for birds and
it seems the Kingfishers are missing. I noticed a drop in them last year too
but I cannot say I have any idea as to why, it is one of my favorite birds.

To the group, especially my fellow Upstaters,
I live in Ulster County, with approximately 1000 feet of frontage along
Roundout Creek. During the summers of 2017 and 2018, I would see/hear
kingfishers daily. This summer I have observed them 2 or 3 times.
Are others seeing a similar lack of kingfishers?
We had way above average rain from August to early October last year.
Wondering if this may have had negative impact on prey availability, or on last
year's nest success.
