[nysbirds-l] Mew Gull in Brooklyn...

[Andrew Baksh]

I had a probable MEW GULL at the Brooklyn Army Terminal Pier 4. It was feeding 
near the breakwall but I only had bins on me and by the time I ran back to my 
whip for my scope, I could not relocate the bird.  I am currently sifting 
through the Gulls and will post an update if re-found.

Cheers,

Bobbi Manian just tweeted photo of adult Common/Mew Gull on the water in
the Narrows off the Belt Parkway esplanade between Veteran's Memorial Pier
and the 80th street pedestrian crossover. This is in Brooklyn (Kings

Re: [nysbirds-l] MEW GULL-NO; Brooklyn birding -YES

[Jason Pietrzak]

I also made an attempt on the Mew today, and also turned up empty. I went to
Gravesend around 10-1130 testing out the high tide theory. I missed the
Purple Sandpipers but got the Common Goldeneye (and maybe saw a small flock
in the distance), a lone Bonaparte's Gull, a lone Greater Scaup and a couple
other lone birds.

Good birding,

[nysbirds-l] MEW GULL-NO; Brooklyn birding -YES

[icterus]

5 Jan

Joe Giunta, Sam Jannazzo, Debbie Martin and I (SY Schiff) went looking for the 
Mew Gull without success.  Our consolation birds wwere Purple Sandpipers on the 
rocks and Common Goldeneye on the water.

Moving toward home, we stopped at the entrance to Kingsboro Community College 
for the Monk Parakeets and then moved on to Spring Creek. There we saw  
Cooper's and Red-tailed Hawks plus 2 circling Killder. On the side opposite the 
shopping center and outlet of the waste treatment plant (which keeps the water 
open) we saw a good  variety of ducks including several Canvasbacks, a 
Kingfisher and a Black-crowned Night-Heron 

Cold, but good birding,SY

I also made an attempt on the Mew today, and also turned up empty. I went to
Gravesend around 10-1130 testing out the high tide theory. I missed the
Purple Sandpipers but got the Common Goldeneye (and maybe saw a small flock
in the distance), a lone Bonaparte's Gull, a lone Greater Scaup and a couple
other lone birds.
