RE: [nysbirds-l] Say's Phoebe at Caumsett State Park (Suffolk Co.)
The bird showed nicely from when I re-found it around 1:15 to when I left at 2:45. Thanks Annie, Sue, and Ken! I recommend bringing a scope and standing back by the line of locust trees mentioned in Ken's post. Scan the brush-hogged stubble and wooden posts to the west. The bird stays low and moves around actively, over a fairly wide area, which is nevertheless almost completely visible from the locust trees. If people enter the fields to get closer views, their views are unlikely to remain close for very long; more importantly, the bird's ability to move around as it pleases would be restricted, and it might decide to move on.
