[nysbirds-l] Black Vulture and Short-eared Owls at Shawangunk Grasslands NWR
Scanned from Galeville Town park for the evening raptor show (from 4pm to 5:45pm). Things move around a lot but high counts included 2 Turkey Vultures, a BLACK VULTURE, 13 Northern Harriers, 2 ROUGH-LEGGED HAWKS, 8 SHORT-EARED OWLS, and 2 Red-tailed Hawks. We also had a COYOTE hunting for mice and providing great scope views for all. A really neat spot. I'm pleased to report that the assembled birders and photographers had a fine and amiable time just enjoying the birds -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
