[nysbirds-l] Dune Road Revisited

[robert adamo]

I returned to Dune Rd. this afternoon, and once again saw, what I'm pretty
sure is the same Snowy Owl, albeit in a fairly close, but different
location.

Starting at the Jessup La. Bridge, Westhampton Beach, I road Dune Rd. to
it's easterly end at the Shinnicock Inlet, Hampton Bays. Although today's
outing was a little longer than yesterday's, the Great Egret total fell
from 13 down to 8.

Also seen e/o the Ponqougue Bridge was a perched, adult, female Merlin,
along with 2 each of Red-throated & Common Loons in the inlet, and 2 drake,
Common Eider, in the ocean w/o the inlet.

I may, or may not, have seen the owl on my own today. As i passed
yesterday's location, the chair was still there, but the bird was not. This
was not surprising after getting an email from Pat Aitken stating that she
also got  the bird yesterday, and while it was still in the same general
area, it had moved to a dune on the ocean side. Continuing east, I came
upon a father & son birding team (I didn't get their names, but they live
in the Setauket area} who had their scope on the Snowy ! It was resting on
the farthest Duck Blind, situated on the n/s of the marsh. I forgot to look
for a pole #, but the road distance back to the Tiana Beach & Marina is ~
1/2 mile.

Cheers,
Bob

[nysbirds-l] Brooklyn Bird Club Evening Presentation

[Dennis Hrehowsik]

Please join the Brooklyn Bird Club Tuesday, April 14, 7:00 PM for:

Exploring in the 21st Century: Ornithological Field Work in the Highlands
of Papua New Guinea

Presenter: Paul Sweet

Location: Brooklyn Public Library Central Branch
at Grand Army Plaza


This past fall, Paul Sweet and a team of specialists from the American
Museum of Natural History headed out to one of the most remote areas in the
world in search of new species and specimens: Papua New Guinea. What did
they find? Hear about this amazing expedition at tonight's presentation.

Paul Sweet was born in Bristol, England, and has been interested in birds
for as long as he can remember. After completing a degree in zoology at the
University of Liverpool, he traveled in the Americas and Asia for several
years before working in the Raffles Museum in Singapore. In 1991 he moved
to New York to work at the American Museum of Natural History, where he is
now the Collections Manager in the Ornithology Department.

[nysbirds-l] Valley Stream Yellow-throated Warbler continues

[TESSA1]

The Warbler is still around as of 12:30 PM when I left it. Now in its  
ninth day at this location, it's important to know that this bird is now  
covering a lot more ground, and should be looked for around the streams at the  
south end of the park as well as areas within A.J. Hendrickson Park, which is  
just to the south over Hendrickson Ave. When I found it today, it was 
hawking  insects on a private residence at the eastern side of A.J. Hendrickson 
Park,  fairly close to Hendrickson Ave. Ultimately, it returns to it's 
favorite place,  which is around the wooden bulkheads where the 2 streams 
connect 
at the south  end of VSSP.

[nysbirds-l] Birders needed for a citizen science project

[Joseph O'Sullivan]

New York City Audubon is looking for volunteers to participate in a citizen
science project.

The project is the Harbor Herons Foraging Study. Volunteers will be
assigned to a park for the season. After this, volunteers will go to their
park periodically, count wading birds (herons, egrets, ibises), record
habitat and environmental conditions, and then enter their observations
into an online database. This is part of an ongoing study that started in
2009.

More information is online at our partner New Jersey Audubon's site here:
http://www.njaudubon.org/SectionCitizenScience/HarborHeronSurveys.aspx
and here:
http://www.njaudubon.org/SectionCitizenScience/CitizenScienceMaterials.aspx

I am the project coordinator for the study. I can answer any questions
about the project online (josulli...@nycaudubon.org) or I can be reached by
phone at 347-827-8163. There will be a training and orientation session
6:00pm May 4th at the NYC Audubon Office. Attendance is not required, but
is recommended. RSVP as space is limited.

Re:[nysbirds-l] Huntington-Oyster Bay Monthly Program: Let's Get It On: How Birds Reproduce with Professer Doug Robinson

[Stella Miller]

Wednesday April 87pmCold Spring Harbor Library
Let's Get It On: How Birds Reproduce
Spring is the breeding season for many birds, but what does that entail? Before 
nestlings can be produced, a lot has to happen!  From claiming territories to 
enticing a partner to raising young, tonight we will cover the basics, the 
mysteries, and the complexities of avian reproduction of some common, and 
not-so-common, birds of Long Island.
Professor Doug Robinson is an evolutionary biologist whose teaching and 
research experiences have focused on organismal biology and behavior. He has 
taught classes on animal behavior, ecology, ornithology, vertebrate biology, 
general biology, environmental science, and anatomy and physiology. He guided a 
group of students to New Zealand for an 18-day trip as part of his studies. The 
questions that guide his research revolve around how behavior is shaped by 
ecological and social environments. Stella MillerPresidentHuntington-Oyster Bay

"Conservation is sometimes perceived as stopping everything cold, as holding 
whooping cranes in higher esteem than people. It is up to science to spread the 
understanding that the choice is not between wild places or people, it is 
between a rich or an impoverished existence for Man." Thomas Lovejoy

[nysbirds-l] Dune Road Revisited

[robert adamo]

I returned to Dune Rd. this afternoon, and once again saw, what I'm pretty
sure is the same Snowy Owl, albeit in a fairly close, but different
location.

Starting at the Jessup La. Bridge, Westhampton Beach, I road Dune Rd. to
it's easterly end at the Shinnicock Inlet, Hampton Bays. Although today's
outing was a little longer than yesterday's, the Great Egret total fell
from 13 down to 8.

Also seen e/o the Ponqougue Bridge was a perched, adult, female Merlin,
along with 2 each of Red-throated  Common Loons in the inlet, and 2 drake,
Common Eider, in the ocean w/o the inlet.

I may, or may not, have seen the owl on my own today. As i passed
yesterday's location, the chair was still there, but the bird was not. This
was not surprising after getting an email from Pat Aitken stating that she
also got  the bird yesterday, and while it was still in the same general
area, it had moved to a dune on the ocean side. Continuing east, I came
upon a father  son birding team (I didn't get their names, but they live
in the Setauket area} who had their scope on the Snowy ! It was resting on
the farthest Duck Blind, situated on the n/s of the marsh. I forgot to look
for a pole #, but the road distance back to the Tiana Beach  Marina is ~
1/2 mile.

Cheers,
Bob
