[nysbirds-l] American Avocet @ East Pond Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge Queens Co.

2015-08-12 Thread birdingdude
There is an American Avocet currently on the East Pond at Jamaica Bay. The bird 
is on the west side, about a little more than 1/2 way up the pond.

Also of note were singles of Stilt Sandpiper, Pectoral Sandpiper and Piping 
Plover, the latter only my second ever on the pond. It should be noted that my 
observations were all from the East Side of the pond looking across to the west 
side as I make my way up from south to north.

Other notable non shorebird sighting was a juvenile Black Tern at the south end 
reported by Sean Sime with Shane Blodgett.

Full report later.

Cheers from the pond!

[nysbirds-l] Caspian Tern @ East Pond Jamaica Bay Queens County...

2015-08-01 Thread birdingdude
I have not seen this posted as yet and I double checked my junk folder since 
many reports seem to keep ending up in that folder.

I just picked up a voice message from Ann Lazarus, who indicated that she and 
her crew (love saying that) had a Caspian Tern at the raunt this morning around 
the same time I was trying to call her to give her a report from the north end 
after spotting them.  The bird was observed from the Big John's Overlook.

That is a very good bird for the East Pond and good to know that we have one 
around. In the past few seasons, I have had one hang around for a few days so 
keep an eye out if you are visiting.

Cheers,

[nysbirds-l] Jamaica Bay East Pond update and Shorebird report 7-25

2015-07-25 Thread birdingdude
This afternoon just before high tide, I ventured forth onto the East Pond, 
first checking the north end. There are no flats on that end and water, is 
still above the ankles--in some areas much higher. It was tricky navigating but 
I made it up to Dead Man's Cove where I had 6 shorebirds.

Over at the south end, flats have started to open up but there were no 
shorebirds around.  At Big John's Pond, I had 2 Northern Waterthrushes and one 
Spotted Sandpiper. A careful scan from the overlook did not turn up any 
shorebirds that I might have missed--although I got to count the Mute Swan 
population, which holds steady at 122.

In total I had a "whopping" 7 species of shorebirds. It was depressing but I am 
holding out hope that we have yet to see a big wave of migrating shorebirds.

The species and numbers are as follows: 6 Greater Yellowlegs, 2 Lesser 
Yellowlegs, 2 Short-billed Dowitchers, 2 Oystercatchers, 1 Spotted Sandpiper, 4 
Least Sandpipers and about 15 Semipalmated Sandpipers. 

This time last year (26th to be precise), I was reporting 2100 Semipalmated 
Sandpipers.

[nysbirds-l] East Pond Update July 23rd

2015-07-23 Thread birdingdude
Dear all,

As I indicated a few days ago, there is currently work being done on the north 
end of the East Pond. Although, I had a fairly good idea of what was being 
attempted.  Yesterday evening, I had a conversation with NPS management in an 
effort to clarify what exactly was being done.

Here is the scoop--NPS, has uncovered an area of the pipe that drains the pond. 
This section was found to have some collapsing occurring and so the SHORT TERM 
solution is to sleeve it with PVC piping. A long term solution will be to 
replace the entire pipe and put in place a more robust and updated system.  
This will require much more money than the short term solution so it will not 
happen overnight. However, it is on the radar to get done.

As a result of the action taken to uncover the problematic section of the pipe 
and clearing the collapsed area and any blockage, water is now flowing at a 
considerable clip out of the pond. This, I verified early this morning as I 
visited the site and could see that the output will make a difference in the 
water level.

This increased flow coupled with a dry spell means that we have a very good 
chance of salvaging the shorebird season on the pond. I'll keep posting updates 
as I check in and note the water level and movement of shorebirds.

Again, thank you to all those who took the time to call in and or write to NPS, 
who themselves deserve credit for taking the necessary actions.

Start brushing up on your shorebirds peeps, it's going to get real in a matter 
of weeks!

Cheers,

[nysbirds-l] Nassau County Red Phalarope continues @ new location

2015-07-23 Thread birdingdude
The Jones Beach Red Phalarope continues but not at any of the now dry areas 
near the Teddy Roosevelt Nature Center.

This according to Steve Schellenger who just called to report that the bird was 
seen at the eastern edge of the lagoon near the Coast Guard Station. Smart bird 
that.

[nysbirds-l] East Pond Draining Quicker...

2015-07-14 Thread birdingdude
I have not verified this as yet but I just got a text from a source in NPS, 
that the East Pond is draining quicker TODAY. Apparently, a "clog" was cleared.

More on that as I will head out there sometime soon to get a pond readout. I 
just wanted to put this out there and thank everyone who took the time out to 
call and write.

[nysbirds-l] Shearwaters & Storm Petrels @ Robert Moses State Park LI...

2015-06-28 Thread birdingdude
A seawatch with Tom Burke and Gail Benson for about an hour and a half at 
Robert Moses  State Park Field 2, resulted in the following highlights.

Cory's Shearwater (5), Great Shearwaters (12) and Wilson's Storm Petrel (7). 

The birds were milling around somewhat so these numbers are a rough estimate.

[nysbirds-l] Arctic Terns @ Cupsogue LI

2015-06-13 Thread birdingdude
Realizing that this weekend was the last window for spring Shorebird surveys. I 
birded Cupsogue LI working two tide cycles.

Beginning on the falling tide, I stayed on the flats throughout the day into 
the rising afternoon tide. The highlights were two Arctic Terns, 1 adult and 1 
first summer bird, 3 Roseate Terns, all adults and 1 Royal Tern that put in a 
late appearance. There was also a 1st summer Least Tern which is always nice to 
see.

While I did not pick up any Black Terns, there were 8 Forster's Terns and over 
200 Common Terns.  The Common Tern flock had some variation in age including a 
couple of "Portlandica" types. It was fun to work through the birds there today 
with little to no disturbance.

As far as shorebirds: today, there were more shorebirds than last week; 
however, the numbers remain small and nothing out of the ordinary was observed.

An abbreviated sea watch early this morning was non productive.

Cheers,

[nysbirds-l] Forest Park Cleanup

2015-04-21 Thread birdingdude
Reminder: we need volunteers for the Forest Park cleanup. So far the responses 
to participate have been few.

The cleanup effort will occur on April 25th (no rain date). The tasks will 
include light pruning (clippers and pruning saws) and garbage removal. The 
project will focus mainly on the path from the 'Yellow Trail" to the Watehole; 
however, I expect we could expand where necessary. Parks will provide, gloves, 
bags and tools for the effort.

Please contact me offline if you are interested in participating. 

Thank You

[nysbirds-l] Caracara Including Parking

2015-04-12 Thread birdingdude
The bird which had flown off for a bit just returned to the same area reported 
earlier this AM.

I just spoke with the owner, a delightful gentleman who is quite welcoming. He 
reiterated the need for parking in the proper location which is the lot near 
the club house or the adjoining grass on the left.

Please do not park on the road on the way into the golf course. It clogs up the 
driveway and impedes his business, which is quite busy on Sunday.

The Common Ground-Dove continues at Captree, although it is sometimes absent 
for half an hour or so at a time. At 9:50, during one of the dove's absences, a 
Western Kingbird appeared along the same edge of vegetation. I had to leave 
shortly thereafter, but I heard from Lloyd Spitalnik that the dove reappeared 
in its usual haunts and gave a good show for all its newly assembled devotees. 
At last report, neither dove nor kingbird were visible, but I would think that 
patient scanning of the northern edge of the easternmost lot is likely to be 
rewarded.

Buff-breasted Sandpiper @ Floyd Bennett Field in the same place where the 
Baird's was reported(runway east of the cricket field).  I am enjoying the view

[nysbirds-l] Marbled Godwit @ JBWR...

2010-08-08 Thread birdingdude
A Marbled Godwit is currently on the East Pond.  Seen by several birders 
(including Eric Miller, George Dadone and John Collins) from the South East and 
Shane Blodgett and others from the North West flats.  Last observed feeding 
with the continuing Hudsonian Godwit South of Sanderling Point on the west 
side.   Other notables include, continuing American White Pelican, Wilson's 
Phalaropes and juvenile Black Terns.  Good luck if you go.

The American White Pelican continues.  Please see previous e-mails for

Before the rain came, I found a Hudsonian Godwit just across the raunt from the 
North End of the East Pond.  I was able to see the bird from the North West end 
from the East Pond as well as from the overlook at Big John's pond trail 
looking South West on the pond.

This could be the same bird that was found by Tom Fiore last week that a few us 
were able to see.  Good luck if you go.

[nysbirds-l] Wilson's Plover @Jones Beach West End...

2010-05-08 Thread birdingdude
I found a Wilson's Plover this afternoon on the spit at the Coast Guard 
Station.  Subsequently, the bird took off with the flock of Semipalmated 
Plovers it was in company with. Luckily, I was able to relocate it in front of 
the concession stand by the swale. I'll have digiscopings shots posted on my 
blog later.  Good luck if ypu go.

NYSbirders,
A Northern Hawk Owl previously reported in Champlain, Clinton County,
NY was still in the area yesterday afternoon (14 Feb).  Chris Wiley,
Alberto Lopez, Carolyn Sedgwick, and I saw the bird perched behind the
house at 494
Prospect St. in Champlain.  Two Northern Shrikes and two Ruffed Grouse
were also along Prospect St.

Searching through my email inbox, I do not think this bird was
reported to the state listserv even though it is a state rarity and
has been present for several weeks (reported 20 January 2010 by Donna
Gooley) - even
on the local listserv
(http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NNYB.html), there were no
updates on the hawk owl since 6 February.  It might be helpful if
local birders or
visitors could continue to monitor and update on the presence/ absence
of the owl
- if not to help traveling birders, it is at the very least
interesting and important to note the entire date range of such a rare
bird's stay.
We saw another long-staying Northern Hawk Owl a bit west of Montreal
earlier in the day (<1 hr NW of Champlain, NY).
Details (in French) are here:
