Having this very exciting bird in our area for a few days reminded me of Van Morrison's lyric from his meditation "Coney Island" --- "Out all day birdwatching and the craic was good". Believe that term for good conversation is pronounced the same way as the bird. Things come in threes and while I missed the Greenshank and the Corn Crake you twitchers should be good for one more great rarity before winter sets in. Good craic and good birding.

Thanks to everyone who posted updates and to the several locals who left me voice mails and off list emails, and to Ken T., who facilitated my brief but satisfying looks as I was rushing between meetings. Of course, Corn Crake is already on the NYSOA list, but the license plates I noted from 5 states as I pulled away yesterday are a testament to its specialness. I believe a toast to this cool little bird will be in order tonight at the Brightwaters Thursday night watering hole. <image001.png> Bob Grover d +1 (631) 761-7369 | c +1 (516) 318-8536 An Equal Opportunity Employer From: bounce-122034547-3714...@list.cornell.edu<mailto:bounce-122034547-3714...@list.cornell.edu> [mailto:bounce-122034547-3714...@list.cornell.edu] On Behalf Of Christopher T.
