[nysbirds-l] Dickcissel at Oceanside Nature Center

2015-10-07 Thread syschiff
Marine Nature Study Area 7 Oct

The marshes held a few GREATER YELLOWLEGS, 2 KILLDEER and both Egrets. There 
were about a dozen sparrows on the paths including SAVANNAH, SONG and SWAMP 
SPARROWS.
In the dune area, a dozen YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERS were active. As I moved on, a 
DICKCISSEL popped up along with a HOUSE FINCH, both quickly flying off. Lovely 
day.

[nysbirds-l] Fort Niagara SP - Niagara County

2015-10-07 Thread Willie D'Anna and Betsy Potter
I birded Fort Niagara at the mouth of the Niagara River this morning and was
happy to see that some BONAPARTE'S GULLS have returned. There were also
numerous COMMON TERNS and one FORSTER'S TERN. A few Common Loons,
White-winged Scoters, Red-breasted Mergs, and a Red-necked Grebe were flying
by over the lake. Looking well upriver from the coast guard station, I found
a CANVASBACK sitting on a log with some Mallards. While trying for a closer
view of the Cannie, I came across a small flock of songbird migrants, which
included the standard fare.

 

My eBird checklist, with photos, is here:

Good birding!
