[nysbirds-l] Baird's Sandpiper in PM - no

2013-08-31 Thread robert adamo
This afternoon I tried for the above and again came away empty. With the
bird having been seen twice earlier today, I left home feeling confident,
but upon arrival at the Osborne/Sound Aves sod field, found very little in
the way of birds. This condition could have been because of the Peregrine
Falcon mentioned in Angus Wilson's post. Found were ~ 12 Killdeer, 1 Least
Sandpiper, and a flock of E. Starlings, in ~ 1 hour of searching. Ro
Valente joined me for the last 20 minutes, and she found/added a Red-tail
Hawk & a Turkey Vulture to the tally.

Cheers,
Bob

[nysbirds-l] Common Nighthawks, Sullivan Cty.

2013-08-31 Thread Scott Rando
I spotted about a half dozen common nighthawks at 7 pm tonight; they were
hawking for insects over Decker Rd in Glen Spey in Sullivan County.  Winds
were calm and clouds broken to overcast.

RE: [nysbirds-l] Golden Plover @ JBWR

2013-08-31 Thread Steve Walter
I posted a picture of the AMERICAN GOLDEN PLOVER from Jamaica Bay's East
Pond today. Sorry about the brevity earlier (I hate typing in the field),
but you all know where the Black-bellied Plovers hang out. The problem is
they didn't hang much longer because the scourge of the East Pond chased off
nearly all the shorebirds. It was shocking to look around from the spit
opposite the island two hours before high tide and see less than 10
shorebirds (at what should be the peak of the year (at least for variety)).
So if the birds didn't relocate to the south end, what's the alternative?
Maybe leaving the Jamaica Bay area entirely. I've given comments before on
what appears to me a quicker turnover of birds than in the past. Blame
Peregrines instead of Sandy? I don't know. There are Peregrines every year.
But this is bad (8 shorebird species) and I wouldn't have great confidence
in looking for the Golden tomorrow.

 

A few birds did come in afterwards, including two juvenile Sanderlings (not
an everyday bird on the East Pond), but I left around 4:00 (with high tide
at 5:30) because there few so few birds left. One other highlight was a
White M Hairstreak flying across the pond and landing in the phragmites
behind me, so I could get a look. A lowlight was a dead Clapper Rail on the
sidewalk between the parking lot and the access road to the pond.

 

The plover picture is at http://www.stevewalternature.com/ . (Also, some
Arizona pictures on the recent work page for those interested.) Although the
picture shows the Golden among dowitchers, the Golden was more so among the
Black-bellies. Interestingly, the Golden was somewhat belligerent toward
Black-bellies on repeated occasions, with only one Black-belly returning the
favor once. Not that Goldens often show up in the JBWR Black-belly roost,
but I've not seen this behavior before.

[nysbirds-l] golden-winged warbler Alley Pond park Queens county

2013-08-31 Thread David Klauber
This morning around 8AM there was a female Golden-winged Warbler with a small 
group of warblers at "Little Alley". There were also 2 Nashville Warblers that 
occasionally wagged their tails, but probably not enough for the western race. 
Ponds were dry and the vegetation was dense almost everywhere, making 
visibility poor. But my dog list increased exponentially

[nysbirds-l] Common Nighthawks, Sullivan Cty.

2013-08-31 Thread Scott Rando
I spotted about a half dozen common nighthawks at 7 pm tonight; they were
hawking for insects over Decker Rd in Glen Spey in Sullivan County.  Winds
were calm and clouds broken to overcast.

[nysbirds-l] Baird's Sandpiper in PM - no

2013-08-31 Thread robert adamo
This afternoon I tried for the above and again came away empty. With the
bird having been seen twice earlier today, I left home feeling confident,
but upon arrival at the Osborne/Sound Aves sod field, found very little in
the way of birds. This condition could have been because of the Peregrine
Falcon mentioned in Angus Wilson's post. Found were ~ 12 Killdeer, 1 Least
Sandpiper, and a flock of E. Starlings, in ~ 1 hour of searching. Ro
Valente joined me for the last 20 minutes, and she found/added a Red-tail
Hawk  a Turkey Vulture to the tally.

Cheers,
Bob
