[nysbirds-l] Woodcocks - Greenwood Cemetery

2010-10-30 Thread Robert Bate
We were able to see 6 American Woodcocks in Brooklyn's historic Greenwood
Cemetery today.  Most were in the area of the Battle Hill Monument.  We
caught sight ofone walking and feeding between gravestones and another later
flew in a circle around us affording excellent views; the rest were birds we
spooked who just took off away from us.  Also lots and lots of
Golden-crowned Kinglets, Chipping Sparrows, Dark-eyed Juncos and Hermit
Thrushes.  Yeah!
