[nysbirds-l] Mt. Loretto/ Ash-throated search+

[Sean Sime]

It was a frustrating yet hopeful morning on Staten Island.
I was searching for the flycatcher this morning from before sunrise till 9am.
Passerine morning flight was in full effect with thousands of grackles and 
blackbirds on the move along with modest numbers of Purple Finch, Siskin and 
Goldfinch.
In one of the flycatcher sighting areas relayed to me by Isaac Grant I heard 
vocalizations consistent with the 2 syllable call note and the husky rolling 
"br" on two separate occasions with about 40 minutes in between them. I 
never did see the bird before I had to leave for work.
While walking the main path listening to the continuing morning flight I heard 
two Evening Grosbeak flying SW. Unfortunately I was unable to obtain photo 
documentation. 
So while I was unable to nail either of these species down, I firmly believe 
the flycatcher is still there. I'm interested if any morning flights or hawk 
watches in the area witnessed a movement of Evening Grosbeaks today.

Cheers,

Sean Sime

[nysbirds-l] Footprints in the Field

[Erich Glanz]

On a Veterans' Day visit to Calverton National Cemetery today, we observed 
footprints of probable cattle egrets on the soil covering several recent 
interments. They were next to deer footprints. See below.

Despite searching for over 4 1/2 hours for the Ash-throated Flycatcher at
Mount Loretto this morning/afternoon today it was not seen. I circled the
whole park many times without luck.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Footprints in the Field

[redknot]

Erich: Could the footprints you took photos of be turkey tracks? They look like 
that to me and since cattle egret are quite uncommon on Long Island this time 
of year while turkey are very common I suspect that is what you found.
