[nysbirds-l] Jones Beach West End- Northern Shrike, Marbled Godwit, Red Crossbill, Pine Siskins
I started out this morning at the Coast Guard Station where the sand spit was devoid of birds. I tried scoping out the flats across the channel, but the foggy conditions didn't help. So I resorted to walking the median where there were several flocks of Pine Siskins, Goldfinches, and a suprise male Red Crossbill. Raptors observed included Northern Harriers, Sharp-shinned Hawk, 1 Cooper's Hawk, and a Peregrine Falcon. After checking the median I headed back over to the Coast Guard Station where the fog was no longer present and the sun even popped out for a bit. A Harbor Seal greeted me as I approached the edge of the dock- pretty neat. On the water were a pair of Common Eider, 1 White-winged Scoter, 1 Long-tailed Duck, 4 Great Cormorants, lots of DC Cormorants, and several Common Loons. On the exposed flats were many American Oystercatchers and among them was the Marbled Godwit. An American Bittern that popped out of the marsh for a short time was a nice suprise. Before leaving, a Common Snipe flew over calling. At the Nature Center, the Northern Shrike continues. Also present were several Horned Larks, a flock of Snow Bunting, and 2 Eastern Meadowlarks.
