[nysbirds-l] 9/14 RMSP (Suffolk Co.) Morning Flight: Western Kingbird, etc
There was a decent morning flight along the barrier beach today. I was only able to observe about an hour and a half of the flight (from 6:45 to 8:15) and there was still a fairly good number of birds passing through when I left.The flight was highlighted by a Western Kingbird that flew by Field 2 around 8:10. It seemed to have landed in the shrubs near the entrance but a subsequent search failed to relocate it.Other interesting birds included an American Pipit, a duo of Dickcissels, and at least 10 species of warbler including 2 Cape Mays.A full list can be seen at: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S15171055 Good birding, Michael McBrien -- NYSbirds-L List Info: Welcome and Basics Rules and Information Subscribe, Configuration and Leave Archives: The Mail Archive Surfbirds BirdingOnThe.Net Please submit your observations to eBird! --
