Re: [nysbirds-l] Fwd: avocet (no) at jones beach coast guard

[Steven Schellenger]

The American Avocet found at Jones Beach State Park Coast Guard Station
sand spit by Bob Anderson, hung around for about an hour before being
chased off by a Peregrine Falcon that strafed the spit 3 or 4 times,
finally the American Avocet had enough and flew off toward the Loop Parkway
draw bridge.

 Hi Andrew, I'm not on ABA so can't post about the avocet etc. but I have
 blog of my own where I post my pics http://longislandbirding.blogspot.com/
 I was at the JB Coast Guard Station looking for the avocet around 3:30 ,
 but there were no signs of it...just saw short billed dowitchers, common
 loon, black scoter flock, semi palmated sandpipers, sanderling in breeding
 plumage.  There were 2 obnoxious guys that walked onto the spit and were
 chasing the birds away, so chances are they spooked the avocet away.  Could
 you please post this on ABA?  I know it's sometimes helpful to post
 non-sightings too.

 Thanks,
 Rob
