[nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak, Central Park, NYC - Tues., 4/25 (and no re-finds of Painted Passerina bunting - ?)

2023-04-25 Thread Tom Fiore
Central Park, Manhattan, N.Y. City -

A ‘female-type-plumaged’ BLUE Grosbeak was seen in Central Park’s Ramble area, 
just north of the Azalea Pond there on Tuesday, April 25th; thanks to M.B. 
Kooper for an initial report! Note that this was seen in the afternoon of 
Tuesday.

In the meanwhile, that ‘other’ Passerina [genus] individual, somewhat 
rarer-still (!) - the Painted Bunting of recent days, in Central Park’s 
northern area for all of its’ known stay so far, has *not been publicly 
reported in 2 days*, and, possibly has moved on.  It is also *possible* that it 
remains in the county or even in the same sector of the same park, somewhere.

Fairly good diversity of other migrant species were again seen (overall) in 
Central Park, and elsewhere in N.Y. County, which takes in Manhattan island.

Good birds,

Tom Fiore

[nysbirds-l] Blue grosbeak in Co-Op City Athletic Field, Bronx

2022-05-02 Thread Lela Chapman
There is what I believe to be young or nonbreeding male blue grosbeak in
the northern Co-Op City Athletic Field in the Bronx, just around 3pm.  I
was eating lunch in my car with my binoculars scanning all the starlings
and robins in the field, and very surprised to see this bird.  If I'm wrong
lunch is on me, but I think it's worth reporting.  Will post some terrible
phone/binocular pictures to Ebird shortly in a list submitted for the
Rivers Run Community Garden hotspot.

Coordinates were 40.876219, -73.823819.

[nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak - Oceanside Landfill 6/2 (Nassau Co)

2017-06-02 Thread Brendan Fogarty
Morning all,
A Town of Hempstead survey of the Oceanside Landfill along Long Beach Road 
produced at least one immature male Blue Grosbeak. It was singing along the 
north and west edges of the landfill. I was able to observe an immature male 
singing at two locations ~1,100 ft apart within a few minutes, but I did not 
have time to verify that there were two birds. They look similar in photos. 
Also here Savannah Sparrows breeding on the landfill, 2 Indigo Buntings, and a 
very late BT Green Warbler. Lots of flyby ibis here. Also 4 Little Blue Herons 
in the immediate marsh, seen from atop the landfill.
I do not know about access, but there is a small (gated) park which from which 
it would be audible 40.623182, -73.636119The parking area at the end of this 
road is close to the second point, but is commercial, trashed, and secluded, so 
be careful: 40.621469, -73.634468Chabad of Oceanside parking lot is still 
within earshot of the second point. 40.620521, -73.632850
Please be respectful of people in the neighborhood and don't stress the bird 
with playback if you go, it was singing consistently this morning around 7.

[nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak YES (New York County)

2017-05-10 Thread brian . whipple
The Blue Grosbeak was foraging around the apiary in the Battery exactly
where first described by Gabriel Willow: just west of the Statem Island
Ferry terminal.

Any gardeners or other employees of the Battery Conservancy will know how
to direct you if needed.

I tried posting to @BirdCentralPark on Twitter, but for some reason I can't.

[nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak, Central Park, NYC 10/12

2016-10-13 Thread Thomas Fiore
Central Park, Manhattan, N.Y. City
Wednesday, 12 October, 2016 -

A BLUE Grosbeak (of brownish coloration) was found by Joe Giunta's  
morning NYC Audubon (NYCAS) chapter bird-walk group, at the wildflower  
meadow in the park's north end, and subsequently seen by various other  
observers intermittently thru the day, with late sightings in the last  
hour of the day; most of the time rather skulking in the eastern end  
of the fenced-in meadow, which is very roughly near about 104th  
Street, & west of the park's East Drive.  A very good variety of other  
migrants was found by the birding groups led by the above, & Gabriel  
Willow & others with NYCAS, as well as for the AMNH (American Museum  
of Natural History), in various parts of the park today.  Thanks to  
all and in regards to helping to put word out, to David Barrett of  
Manhattan, who also was on-scene for the blue grosbeak.

"All ethics so far evolved rest upon a single premise: that the  
individual is a member of a community of interdependent parts. ~

The land ethic simply enlarges the boundaries of the community to  
include soils, waters, plants, and animals, or collectively: the land. ~

A land ethic changes the role of Homo sapiens from conqueror of the  
land-community to plain member and citizen of it.   It implies respect  
for his-her fellow-members, and also respect for the community as such."

It was a slow day both at Jamaica bay and Forest Park. Very unusual for Forest 
Park was a female type Blue Grosbeak feeding along the railroad tracks straight 
back from the waterless water hole, by a sandy area where there's a path 
crossing the tracks.
A Cape May was singing an alternate-type song by the gully, otherwise diversity 
was low - many Parulas, a BT Green, Blackpoll, Ovenbird.

Re:[nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak, Muscoot Farm Westchester

2015-04-21 Thread Ryan MacLean
Still there as of 5:15 PM working the same general area of the field behind the 
gazebo, feeding on the ground near the haymounds on the right side of the 
field. For those unfamiliar w Muscoot Farm, take the trail straight at the far 
end of the parking lot past all of the barns and a field surrounded by a white 
fence, bare right at the first fork til you get to a wooden shed. Take the next 
right and eventually you'll emerge in a field with a gazebo directly infront of 
you. The field directly beyond the gazebo is where the Grosbeak is hanging out, 
about an 8 minute walk from the parking lot. Ann primarily had it on the left 
side of the field working the brushy area and this is where I first spotted it 
(it will occasionally associate w Blackbirds & Cowbirds in treetops). However 
the area we mostly watched the bird was near the hay-mounds on the right just 
when you walk into the field past the gazebo. The bird does flush very easily 
so please keep your distance and stay on the trails as to not corner the bird.


Most importantly, for those who don't know THE PARK GATE CLOSES AT 4 PM. If you 
get there near closing time you should park on Route 100.


Thank you Roger for the awesome find and to Ann for getting the word out!


-Ryan

Re:[nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak, Muscoot Farm Westchester

2015-04-21 Thread Ryan MacLean
Still there as of 5:15 PM working the same general area of the field behind the 
gazebo, feeding on the ground near the haymounds on the right side of the 
field. For those unfamiliar w Muscoot Farm, take the trail straight at the far 
end of the parking lot past all of the barns and a field surrounded by a white 
fence, bare right at the first fork til you get to a wooden shed. Take the next 
right and eventually you'll emerge in a field with a gazebo directly infront of 
you. The field directly beyond the gazebo is where the Grosbeak is hanging out, 
about an 8 minute walk from the parking lot. Ann primarily had it on the left 
side of the field working the brushy area and this is where I first spotted it 
(it will occasionally associate w Blackbirds  Cowbirds in treetops). However 
the area we mostly watched the bird was near the hay-mounds on the right just 
when you walk into the field past the gazebo. The bird does flush very easily 
so please keep your distance and stay on the trails as to not corner the bird.


Most importantly, for those who don't know THE PARK GATE CLOSES AT 4 PM. If you 
get there near closing time you should park on Route 100.


Thank you Roger for the awesome find and to Ann for getting the word out!


-Ryan

Late this afternoon, 4:30ish, a quick stop after work to the dump area in the 
back of Field 2 at Sunken Meadow produced at least one Blue Grosbeak, 
presumably one of the individuals that was previously reported earlier in the 
year at this location.

[nysbirds-l] BLUE GROSBEAK - a late posting

2013-09-16 Thread Karen Rubinstein
For anyone heading to or in Eastern LI, there was an immature Blue Grosbeak
in a field along Town Lane in East Hampton.  The bird was observed by me on
Sunday in the late morning, and re-found later that day.

The field where it was seen is on the south side of Town Lane; the
western-most portion of the field is close to the corner of Town Lane and
Windmill Lane in Amagansett, NY.

The fields are farmed by Quail Hill and extend south to the railroad track.
 I have had Blue Grosbeak in these fields in the fall for the last three

Late this morning one adult Blue Grosbeak (calling) and two immatures 
were seen in the Veterans Memorial Park, Calverton, in the general 
vicinity of areas where probable breeding was reported in the last BBA.


This park is on the border of EPCAL on the south side of Route 25, 
approximately 4 miles east of William Floyd Parkway, prominently signed. 
From the parking lot, go east to the paved road, then continue south 
(right) past the adjoining paved road to the left. The birds were in the 
oaks overhanging the road about 100 yards on the right. The adult was 
acting somewhat territorial.

[nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak in Bridgehampton

2013-07-11 Thread Hugh McGuinness
This morning I heard a singing male BLUE GROSBEAK behind the South Fork
Natural History Museum in Bridgehampton, (Suffolk Co.). The bird was
singing from the large spruce stand directly behind the museum and then
later along the south-eastern edge of the park. There are also several
singing male Indigo Buntings and a small colony of Purple Martins in the
field.

I heard from Jim Ash that his search for the Elegant Tern at Shinnecock was
unsuccessful today, however there was a MARBLED GODWIT on the Tiana flats,
and a WHIMBREL at Triton Lane.

RE: [nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak, Kissena Corridor

2012-11-03 Thread Steve Walter
The BLUE GROSBEAK was seen again today at Kissena Corridor (probably better
by Jeff Ritter than me), by the paved path that crosses at 148th Street.
Also in this vicinity were a Winter Wren, up to 10 Fox Sparrows, a Nashville
Warbler, and what in a brief look appeared to be a Tennessee Warbler. When I
first arrived, a flock of 7 Eastern Bluebirds passed overhead, probably on
their way to join in the coastal flight that I'm sure was taking place (but
I couldn't enjoy due to storm related issues). A couple of separate
Bluebirds did touch down in the corridor. I kept an eye on a crab apple tree
at the western end of the corridor that was popular with robins, starlings,
and House Finches, as a potential grosbeak attraction (although that might
be more of a Pine than Evening Grosbeak thing).

 

I haven't abandoned hope on the Virginia's, especially since the spot is so
close to home. A brief check today yielded a Blackpoll Warbler and another
late surprise in the form of a Red-eyed Vireo. At the other end of Alley
Pond Park, by Oakland Lake, migrant influx was evidenced by several Palm and
Yellow-rumped Warblers, as well as a Nashville Warbler. To add to the
comments yesterday on Nashvilles still coming down from points north, I
believe that western Nashvilles could be in the mix at this stage of the
season. I was able to photograph the one at Kissena. It's a dull immature,
but gray extending well down the back might be indicative of a western bird
(or just a dull eastern).

RE: [nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak, Kissena Corridor

2012-11-03 Thread Steve Walter
The BLUE GROSBEAK was seen again today at Kissena Corridor (probably better
by Jeff Ritter than me), by the paved path that crosses at 148th Street.
Also in this vicinity were a Winter Wren, up to 10 Fox Sparrows, a Nashville
Warbler, and what in a brief look appeared to be a Tennessee Warbler. When I
first arrived, a flock of 7 Eastern Bluebirds passed overhead, probably on
their way to join in the coastal flight that I'm sure was taking place (but
I couldn't enjoy due to storm related issues). A couple of separate
Bluebirds did touch down in the corridor. I kept an eye on a crab apple tree
at the western end of the corridor that was popular with robins, starlings,
and House Finches, as a potential grosbeak attraction (although that might
be more of a Pine than Evening Grosbeak thing).

 

I haven't abandoned hope on the Virginia's, especially since the spot is so
close to home. A brief check today yielded a Blackpoll Warbler and another
late surprise in the form of a Red-eyed Vireo. At the other end of Alley
Pond Park, by Oakland Lake, migrant influx was evidenced by several Palm and
Yellow-rumped Warblers, as well as a Nashville Warbler. To add to the
comments yesterday on Nashvilles still coming down from points north, I
believe that western Nashvilles could be in the mix at this stage of the
season. I was able to photograph the one at Kissena. It's a dull immature,
but gray extending well down the back might be indicative of a western bird
(or just a dull eastern).

Kissean Corridor, Queens New York
I was able to get at least one Blue Grosbeak (if anyone is interested).   It 
was out in the open multiple times and gave great views. too bad it was too 
dark to get a good clear picture.

Follow the Flickr link to see it.

[nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak in Central Park

2012-09-29 Thread Gabriel Willow
While leading a group on a tour around Strawberry Fields & The Ramble on this 
damp & chilly morning, we spotted some nice migrants, the highlight of which 
was a young Blue Grosbeak along the edge of the lake south of the Bow Bridge. 
It was flitting through the cattails and then flew up into a weeping willow by 
the water, affording us a good view. It looked to be a first-year bird judging 
by the bright rusty plumage. It was giving its distinctive ringing call.

We also saw a nice assortment of warblers, and numerous Ruby-throated 
Hummingbirds and Rose-breasted Grosbeaks hanging around the jewel weed growing 
by the Oven.

Also spotted was an unusual first-year male Northern Cardinal that I've seen 
several times now by The Oven and the Maintenance Meadow.  He has a freakishly 
long crest, about 2-3 times as long as a typical cardinal's crest I'd say. Has 
anyone else seen this unusual bird?  I've named him "Cresty the Cardinal".  I 
wonder if he'll maintain the extra-long crest through future molts?

Good birding,

Gabriel Willow

[nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak FBF / Cerulean Warbler FP

2012-05-06 Thread Steve Walter
A couple of notable birds I ran into today were a female BLUE GROSBEAK at
Floyd Bennet Field, Brooklyn (in the area just southwest of the community
garden) and a male CERULEAN WARBLER around the water hole at Forest Park,
Queens. The Cerulean had come down to the water hole a couple of times
before I got there. Both places, as well as Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge, had
a variety of normal spring migrants that I won't bother to list or boldface.

Re:[nysbirds-l] Blue Grosbeak, Summer Tanagers, etc.

2012-04-28 Thread John Gluth
The Summer Tanager found this morning (~8:15) during the Great South Bay
Audubon field trip (co-led by Steve D'Amato and myself) was actually on
the orange end of the spectrum for a female SUTA, which momentarily led me
to think it was a female oriole when I first laid eyes on it. We managed to
keep it in view for ~5 minutes as it moving through the treetops before
losing track of it. This was along the north edge of the picnic area less
than 100 yards west of the main parking lot, and east of the where the male
was found later.

The SUTAs were part of a fair movement of birds overnight which occurred
despite the north winds and chilly temperatures. These arrivals were
dominated by Yellow-rumped Warblers (of course), but also featured
Blue-winged, Yellow, Black-throated Green, B, N. Parula, and Common
Yellowthroat. Other highlights included Great-crested Flycatcher,
Warbling Vireo, Scarlet Tanager, and Indigo Bunting.

I found that the adult male Blue Grosbeak and 4 male Indigo Buntings
persisted at Gilgo when I visited there solo mid-afternoon (3-3:45).
