Re: [nysbirds-l] Hermit Warbler food
My husband Townsend and I spent from 1:15pm-4:10pm observing & photographing the Hermit Warbler. We have clear photos of the bird eating several types bugs, worms including catapillars. Another gorgous Warbler to see and add to my life list! Thank you Vinny P for such a stunning find! Photos will be posted tomorrow on my blog if your interested. Cheers, Mardi W.

[nysbirds-l] Long Island to Sullivan County
Today, Renee Davis and I did something we hadn't done in a long time. We chased birds on Long Island and we weren't disappointed. We first headed to Jones Beach, where we were immediately greeted by the LOGGERHEAD SHRIKE, perched right on the boardwalk just in from the entrance. It fed continually while we were there, shooting down into the grass, grabbing something and flying back up to eat it on the rails. We stopped at the Coast Guard Station where we had an assortment of geese, gulls and mergansers. A beautiful male Harlequin Duck flew right in next to the piers for decent photo opts. We then headed north to Sunken Meadow Park where we found many birders viewing the very cooperative HERMIT WARBLER! Things were going so well that we decided to head south and try for the not recently seen Common Ground Dove. During our search of Captree Park we found only a Hermit Thrush. At one stop Renee spotted a Northern Gannet which we able to get in the scope. It was a nice day. Back in Sullivan, for those who may be interested, EVENING GROSBEAKS have again returned to the county. Sue Rayano is welcoming birders to her feeders at the corner of Cooley Mt. Road and Smith Road. She has had about three birds daily, several times a day. Another flock of 11 birds were found yesterday and might be seen just about anywhere on the winter finch tour in my book. Good luck if you come!

[nysbirds-l] Hermit Warbler on L.I yes
Went to look at the Hermit Warbler (probable first fall female) at Sunken Meadow SP this am at 9:20. It gave great close views for the ten minutes I was there and was still there when I left. Pretty nice. It's amazing that this bird showed up almost exactly 8 years to the date at the bird I found in '02. Weird. Andrew Andrew v. F.
