[nysbirds-l] Croton Pt. birds

2023-12-15 Thread Andrew Block
Spent about four hours at Croton Pt. Park today.  The two Red-headed 
Woodpeckers are still in the upper picnic area where the airplane field is.  
They gave lots of great photo ops.  Just so cool watching them.  Also had a 
Field Sparrow and two American Tree Sparrows up there to with the juncos.  That 
place is always so good for woodpeckers.  Had four species today and have seen 
all the species you can get at the park there.

[nysbirds-l] Croton Pt. birds

2019-08-19 Thread Andrew Block
Went to look for the Upland Sandpiper at Croton Pt. today with no luck.  Stayed 
on the dump for 2+ hours and only had some Bobolinks, a Harrier, an eagle, and 
an osprey.  There were lots of butterflies though.  The Western Kingbird was 
still in the same spot on the tree line across from the beginning of the dump 
coming from the ballfield.
