[nysbirds-l] PEFA Bird Code App
Related to Andrew’s post below about his TRKI and subsequent objections to the use of banding codes in alerts, the PEFA Bird Code App provides a simple way to type in the code and definitively know what bird the post refers to. It’s in the Apple app store, I don’t know if it’s available for Android phones. Apologies in advance for the non-alert nature of this post but felt that this forum and moment was the best way to get the word out to eliminate future issues.

[nysbirds-l] N.Y. County, NYC - Fri., Oct. 1st - Blue Grosbeak, E. Meadowlark, other migrants
New York County (in N.Y. City) including Manhattan, Randall’s, and Governors Island[s] Friday, 1st of October - A female-plumaged Blue Grosbeak was continuing at Governors Island, near / around Fort Jay, and there were still a very good variety of other migrants to be found there, as well as ongoing insect diversity too. An Eastern Meadowlark was found on Sheep Meadow in Central Park, seen by many for a part of the day. Good diversity in general continued to be noted all through the county, with a slight tendency to more autumnal birds such as various sparrows (also with more Juncos now) on the increase, and somewhat fewer (overall) of the neotropical-wintering migrant species - although there were still a good diversity of the latter and some still in fair numbers, for the date. At least 20 warbler species were still being seen for all of the county on Friday, and of those, a minimum of 19 species were found in Central Park, with so many observers there. Chimney Swifts are still around in fair numbers, as are some Ruby-throated Hummingbirds and some other migrants that one would expect to clear-out in coming weeks, or sooner depending in part on overall weather in the area and the region. Small numbers of Broad-winged Hawks and a variety of other raptors as well as Turkey Vulture were seen from a number of vantage points in Manhattan on Friday, including from Central Park, as well as from Riverside Park South, & elsewhere. A Snowy Egret seen from the Chelsea park off W. 23-28th Streets (Hudson River) was notable now for the date for N.Y. county. good birding to all, Tom Fiore manhattan -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
