[nysbirds-l] Snowy Owl Quest

2018-01-18 Thread robert adamo
Having yet to see my first snowy this season, this afternoon I headed down to Dune Rd., and wound up covering it completely, from Shinnicock Inlet (Hampton Bays) to Cupsogue Co. Park (West Hampton Dunes)...with no change in that dubious distinction ! I did, however, see an A.Bittern in open water

No Slaty-backed so far this afternoon but I just found an adult MEW GULL loafing with Ring-billed above the falls at Minetto, Oswego County. Currently foraging below the falls. -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm

Just had the slaty-backed Gull on the ice shelf at lock 6 in Oswego. All of the Gulls are now in the air. A glaucous was also present. Zach S-W Albany -- Zach Schwartz-Weinstein 203 500 7774 -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm

[nysbirds-l] Townsend’s Solitaire continues Tiffany Creek

It came in ahead of a bluebird group at 9:20 AM and fed on the bittersweet berries on the NE edge of the field. The bluebirds hung around for a bit perching nicely on goldenrod stalks but I couldn’t find the TS again. Rob Bate Brooklyn -- NYSbirds-L List Info:
