[nysbirds-l] Black-throated Blue Warbler in Putnam County
This afternoon, during the Putnam CBC, I had a brief encounter with a male Black-throated Blue Warbler in Carmel, NY. It was in the evergreen bushes just north of the fence-line along the north side of Old Route 6, just east of its northern junction with Route 6 (adjacent to the sewage treatment plant, and actually inside the fence around the facility). The (almost exact) spot is here: https://www.google.com/maps/place/41 °25'00.7%22N+73°40'13.7%22W/@41.4168606,-73.6704722,2609m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x0 Good Birding -Doug Gochfeld.

[nysbirds-l] BALD EAGLES AT MILL POND, WATERMILL, LONG ISLAND, NY
On a drive westward from East Hampton, my sister and I decided to try to get in a bit of birding before the rains started. As we emerged from the car at Mill Pond in Watermill, NY at around 10:45 a large raptor immediately captured my attention: An adult Bald Eagle. We watched it as it hovered above the pond, fly up and return. A few minutes later I saw a Ruddy Duck alone in the middle of the pond. The eagle came over and the duck dove. Over the next several minutes we watched as the eagle followed the duck underwater. Occasionally there would be a splash as the RUDU came up for a breath of air. After about 5 minutes, the eagle made its final pounce and came up with the ruddy in its talons. We watched as the eagle flew off with the duck. As we packed up to go, an immature Bald Eagle flew over the pond; however it either left or went off to a section of the pond not visible from our location. Two Bald Eagles and a breathtaking display of life and death in nature.
