[nysbirds-l] Baird's Sandpiper in PM - no

2013-08-31 Thread robert adamo
This afternoon I tried for the above and again came away empty. With the
bird having been seen twice earlier today, I left home feeling confident,
but upon arrival at the Osborne/Sound Aves sod field, found very little in
the way of birds. This condition could have been because of the Peregrine
Falcon mentioned in Angus Wilson's post. Found were ~ 12 Killdeer, 1 Least
Sandpiper, and a flock of E. Starlings, in ~ 1 hour of searching. Ro
Valente joined me for the last 20 minutes, and she found/added a Red-tail
Hawk & a Turkey Vulture to the tally.

Cheers,
Bob
