[nysbirds-l] Lark Sparrow continues, Central Park, NYC - Monday, 8/29; + note on Eur. M.-Harrier
At Manhattan's (in N.Y. City) Central Park, an adult Lark Sparrow was continuing in the same area of the north end of that park to Monday, August 29th, photo’d. again and with multiple observers. Other migrants also are about, more reports in due course on some of the others. - - On the *extra-limital* side of vastly-rarer (in all of the Americas) birds, the Eurasian Marsh-Harrier (also called Western Marsh Harrier in some references) was apparently not seen at all, in the state of *Maine*, on Sunday, 8/28, and it might be on the move. If so, again - keep eyes out and try to photo or video any harrier potentially passing that appears at all “different”. There is certainly also still a good chance the rare-on-west-side-of-Atlantic raptor might be in the same general area of mid-coast Maine where first noted (including off on any of various islands) or within that sizeable state, which has many potential areas such a bird might utilize. This bird could however potentially be winging its’ way now, through any number of states in the northeastern quadrant of the country (and, if it is a wanderer in another direction, to any of multiple Canadian provinces / islands). P.S., the area where the rare-here harrier was last being seen over a 2-day period, 8/26 & 8/27, is fairly popular for 'local-and-beyond' birders, and is likely to continue to be observed on a regular basis into the coming month[s].

[nysbirds-l] Lark Sparrow continues @ Jones Beach WE2
Gary Strauss just called to report that the Lark Sparrow continues at WE2. He indicated it is currently near the eastern most exit of the lot. Many thanks to Gary who in his own words felt that a "+" report would be welcoming news to those folks leaving work who might want to try for the bird. A very altruistic gesture.
