[nysbirds-l] Reports for Wednesday 3'/23/22 & Thursday 3/24/22
Due to 2 mistakes, the 1st caused by my memory, and the 2nd by my computer, I will now try to post the few birds of interest I saw on the above dates. On Wednesday, I had my FOS Merlin perched in a tree just outside Gabreski Airport, Westhampton. Next, on the bayside of Dune Rd., just e/o Cupsogue County Park, I saw a W.Turkey (a "Tom") which was the 1st of its species I have ever seen on that section of the barrier beach (from Moriches Inlet to Shinnicock Inlet)and I've been coming to Cupsogue since 1969 ! On Thursday, it was quiet also, but I did see an Ipswich Sparrow, for the first time in many years ! The bird, a subspecies of Savannah Sparrow, was so light in color, when I first saw it, while it was perched on a shrub looking straight at me, I thought it might be a Redpoll. It was found on the short road, just e/o the Ponquogue Bridge, that leads to the remains of the old bridge, and was seen in the company of Song Sparrows. Cheers, Bob P.SI don't how much of my first attempt to post the above information made it to NYBirds - L Cheers, Bob -- 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/ --
