[nysbirds-l] Brown Pelican @ Jones Inlet

[Andrew Baksh]

See earlier e-mail  message below. I just watched the immature Brown
Pelican from the fisherman's parking lot at Jones Beach near the Coast
Guard Station, as it flew further north in Jones Inlet.

In speaking to one fisherman (Derek), he indicated that the bird was near
the construction dock right by the fisherman's parking lot.

Good spotting and reporting by Brendan.

[nysbirds-l] Jamaica Bay Restoration: Public Comments are almost over!

[Sean Sime]

We are down to the wire. As of this writing there are less than 7 days left
for public comment on the status of the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge
restoration plan and the fate of the West Pond breach. Will it be restored
to pre-hurricane Sandy conditions? That depends on us.
Last Thursday many birders attended a public meeting at the refuge
headquarters to meet with parks personnel to discuss the various plans
currently on the table and one thing was clear; public comments matter.
It would seem obvious that a Wildlife Refuge would prioritize to fix the
breach and valve system, but the unique governing structure at Jamaica Bay
has made this an unexpectedly heavy lift. Jamaica Bay falls under the
umbrella of the Gateway National Recreation Area, not the US Fish and
Wildlife or The National Park Service. So while the biodiversity is part of
the discussion, it doesn't trump all else.
This is why our voices are so critical at this time. Please take a few
moments to comment and urge Gateway to restore the West Pond to
pre-hurricane Sandy conditions and replace the valve system to maximize
management of water levels to better serve the local and migratory wildlife
using it.

Anyone who has been touched by this special place please use this
opportunity to share your thoughts and concern.

Here is a direct link to the comments page:

Thank you and good birding!

+ Black Bellied Plover, [nysbirds-l] Sunrise to Sunset: Jamaica Bay to Dune Road, Hamptons

[Taylor, Robert Michael]

Hi Everyone,

I was going through my photos and also saw a Black Bellied Plover last Thursday 
- it appeared injured since once of its wings were lowered but it was still 
able to fly.  Wanted to include this update since we're approaching the 
shorebird fall migration.

Good birding,
Rob in Massapequa

[nysbirds-l] Jamaica Bay Shorebird Festival

[Lloyd Spitalnik]

In my last post I abbreviated one of the sponsors as Gateway NRA. So
there's no confusion NRA in this case is National Recreation Area. It
certainly has nothing to do with the National Rifle Association.

[nysbirds-l] Sunken Meadow State Park and ADK Birds

[Ken Feustel]

This morning we did a run up at SMSP and as we crossed the entrance road bridge 
we noticed the exposed mudflats west of the bridge. We delayed our run to check 
out the flats. We recorded  seven species of  the common shorebirds. Of note 
were two juvenile Forster’s Terns with limited flying ability being fed by an 
adult. We expect that in the next breeding bird atlas this species will show an 
increased breeding presence on LI.

Sue and I spent our annual week birding in the Adirondacks, concentrating in 
the Saranac/Paul Smith’s/Tupper Lake area. Weather was great, with cool temps 
throughout and rain limited to a few afternoons. On our first day of birding we 
observed the “boreal trinity” (Black-backed Woodpecker, Boreal Chickadee, and 
Gray Jay) on Bigelow Road, a nice experience since we often have to visit 
multiple locations to record these three species. Gray Jays seemed to have a 
good breeding season, with family groups at most the bogs we visited. Warbler 
breeding seemed late compared with other years. We missed Spruce Grouse, but 
had no trouble finding Ruffed Grouse. I have posted some photos from the trip 
on my flickr site.
