[nysbirds-l] Morningside Park - Sullivan County
This afternoon, I couldn't resist returning to Morningside to see if any new shorebirds came in during the heavy rains. I didn't find any new shorebirds, but a basic plumage BLACK TERN and a Double-crested Cormorant were nice adds to the mix.

[nysbirds-l] Sullivan County
Shorebird numbers are finally starting to pick up in the county. Here are the high counts over the weekend and this morning from Sullivan County Community College and Morningside Park. Semi-palmated Plover - 3 Killdeer - 17 Spotted Sandpiper - 5 Solitary Sandpiper - 3 Lesser Yellowlegs - 2 Semi-palmated Sandpiper - 4 Least Sandpiper - 19 Pectoral Sandpiper - 1 Perhaps the best sighting of the weekend however was found at the Bashakill. Three fortunate birders, Al and Barbara Merrit and Stephen Chang found a CASPIAN TERN at the Main Boat Launch on South Road. Unfortunately, I had already left before it was discovered. Great bird though.

Shane Blodgett just called to report a Red-necked Phalarope at Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn. The bird is feeding in a large puddle formed in the grass adjacent the small runway just opposite the NYPD training area (where the helicopters take off and land).
