Greetings. This is the New York Rare Bird Alert for *Friday, November 5th
2021* at 11pm. The highlights of today's tape are ASH-THROATED FLYCATCHER,
SAY'S PHOEBE, WESTERN KINGBIRD, BLACK-BELLIED WHISTLING-DUCK, BROWN BOOBY,
EURASIAN WIGEON, KING EIDER, MARBLED GODWIT, BLACK-LEGGED KITTIWAKE, CATTLE
EGRET, GOLDEN EAGLE, LAPLAND LONGSPUR, CLAY-COLORED SPARROW,
YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT, DICKCISSEL and more.
The fall's first ASH-THROATED FLYCATCHER was spotted Wednesday at Jones
Beach West End and relocated there again today. The bird has usually been
along the roadway closer to field 1 then field 2, today using both sides
and the median strip sometimes perching on the Christmas light displays and
also moving over to the north edge of the field 1 parking lot and adjacent
bike path just west of the lot.
Also still present today was the SAY'S PHOEBE at Caumsett State Park still
frequenting the fences around the corral area between the parking lots and
the tree line to the north. Also at Caumsett a WESTERN KINGBIRD was found
Wednesday and continued through today along the trail out to Lloyd Point, a
decent hike north from the parking lots. Another WESTERN KINGBIRD was
spotted yesterday flying west over Heckscher State Park.
A BLACK-BELLIED WHISTLING-DUCK paid an unexpected visit last Sunday to the
Bayard Cutting Arboretum in Great River where it was photographed on a pond
with Mallards. A BROWN BOOBY was photographed last Tuesday afternoon as it
flew along side the Orient ferry while crossing Long Island Sound. The
drake EURASIAN WIGEON was still present to Monday on Mill Pond in Oyster
Bay. The Staten Island male KING EIDER has remained at Midland Beach at
least through Monday and another male KING was seen at the inlet to Lake
Montauk last Saturday.
An AMERICAN GOLDEN-PLOVER was still at Floyd Bennett Field Tuesday with
possibly the same GOLDEN spotted in Jamaica Bay last Sunday while another
immature was on the wharf with other shorebirds at the West Boat Marina at
Point Lookout today. A MARBLED GODWIT continued at Jones Beach West End at
least to Sunday and LONG-BILLED DOWITCHERS featured one in the Nickerson
Beach parking lot roost last Saturday and one on Santapogue Creek in West
Babylon to Tuesday.
A nice assembly of birds last Saturday off Robert Moses State Park included
in the morning flight one GREAT and 8 CORY'S SHEARWATERS, 27 BLACK-LEGGED
KITTIWAKES, 20 LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULLS, a PARASITIC JAEGER, 500 NORTHERN
GANNETS and an estimated 6,000 DOUBLE-CRESTED CORMORANTS. Another 21
KITTIWAKES were also moving east just offshore in the late afternoon. A
PARASITIC JAEGER was a highlight off Playland Park in Rye Saturday morning.
An immature ICELAND GULL was found at Breezy Point last Saturday and an
AMERICAN BITTERN visited Prospect Park Wednesday.
A recent invasion of CATTLE EGRETS included singles Thursday at Cedar Beach
and at Miller Field on Staten Island.
GOLDEN EAGLES are now appearing over local hawkwatches on a consistent
basis including 5 at the Butler Sanctuary watch in Bedford Thursday.
A LAPLAND LONGSPUR flew by Moses Park this morning. CLAY-COLORED SPARROWS
late this week were noted at Randall's Island, Forest Park and Jones Beach
West End and the YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT was still at Verizon Plaza just west
of Bryant Park yesterday. VESPER SPARROWS and ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLERS were
each noted at several locations this week. A few DICKCISSELS included one
at Jones Beach West End today.
To phone in reports, call Tom Burke at (914) 967-4922.
