[nysbirds-l] Summer Tanagers in East Hampton (update 2)
Michael Duffy and I returned to the site at 10:30am this morning and found the Summer Tanager in the same area. Looking at it again and in better light, this bird really does look like a first year bird (very brown with paler undersides and a distinctly yellow throat). Didn't see any obvious streaking (which I'd have liked to see) but it otherwise conforms to written descriptions I've seen. The bird was calling intermittently between between 8:00am and 10:30am and was fairly easy to locate when it vocalized. -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
