[nysbirds-l] Wilson's Plover directions (Suffolk)
Here is a more detailed description of the location of the Wilson's Plover,
at Cupsogue Beach County Park, than in my previous posting (which I hope
went out). The fastest way to where I saw the bird late this afternoon
would be to walk west on the 4-wheel drive road from the parking lot. One
on that road, you will pass several official footpaths from the road
through the dunes to the beach ("Designated Dune Access Points"), bordered
by orange-flagged string. Go to the fifth open path (ignoring one that is
closed), just before an open metal gate. When I saw the Plover, it was
immediately west of that path as it opens onto the beach. For the first 15
minutes or so, it was on the dune, in the "virtually fenced" Piping Plover
reserve; it then made its way to the water's edge, where it succeeded at
least in catching a wave-tossed gastropod that it carried up into the
dune. The walk from that site back along the road to the parking lot took
about 10 minutes (less than the walk westward on the beach into the wind,
searching for the bird).
I would have provided more information while in the field, but my phone's
battery charge was dangerously low.
Here's hoping it stays into tomorrow,
Doug Futuyma

[nysbirds-l] Wilson's Plover -- West End Jones Beach
Hi all, Just wanted to get a quick word out that my mom and I just had a Wilson's Plover flyover us at the swale at West End. It was a quick view but it appeared to be a female based on the paler brown and narrow breast band. We have been unable to relocate. It flew west towards the ocean. Also present in the swale were 2 Black-necked Stilts and 4 White-rumped Sandpipers. Good luck if you try for it!

[nysbirds-l] Wilson's Plover BACK at Cupsogue!
Hey everyone, My crew and I just refound the Wilson's Plover at Cupsogue Beach County Park. It's quite far out on the flood shoals in the bay. Currently, it's sitting amongst a bunch of mussels on the far NE side of the main large flood shoal out in the bay. Nearly all of the hundreds of sanderling/Dunlin took off toward the back side of the island, however this guy has stayed in the same area for the better part of an hour in the area described. Best viewing may be from the end of the sandy path that runs from behind a red fence that runs along the dirt road and continues down to the bay. You could also try from the camping area along the dirt road in the park, as it's somewhat of an elevated area. We were on the flood shoal for a PIPL/other shorebird survey when we found the WIPL, and I do have some pictures. The tide is quite low with a ton of mudflats showing currently. Luckily, I was able to put a friendly gentleman named Byron on the bird while he was conducting a shorebird survey for the Audubon Society Good luck! (At least he's still out here).

[nysbirds-l] Wilson's Plover & Golden Plover - No, but 2 consolation prizes instead !
On Tuesday, between 2:30 and ~ 6:00 PM, I looked for the previously reported species, from Cupsogue Co. Pk. to Shinnicock Inlet, without success. I was rewarded for my efforts by finding FOS Boat-tailed Grackles (2) in the marsh along Dune Rd, w/o the Ponquogue Bridge. At the inlet I picked up an immature Iceland Gull, which looked like one of the individuals that favored this location during this past winter. There was also a raff of scooters just inside the mouth of the inlet, but due to the high winds and rough wave action, I was unable to get a real accurate count (estimated ~ 230 birds)and the only specie I was sure of, was Surf Scooter, of which there were many.

Re:[nysbirds-l] WILSON'S PLOVER, Cupsogue Beach County Park, Westhampton Beach
The Wilson's Plover is a great find. But I'm even more intrigued by the American Golden Plovers also mentioned as an aside. American Golden Plover is an uncommon migrant in spring on Long Island, and it seems fairly early as well. As there have been ~20 EUROPEAN Golden Plovers reported up in Newfoundland within the past week I think anyone chasing the Wilson's should also make a concerted effort to to find, carefully study, and photograph any pluvialis plovers found. -- 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/ --
[nysbirds-l] WILSON'S PLOVER, Cupsogue Beach County Park, Westhampton Beach
Hello all! I'm working on Fire Island this spring/summer as a Piping Plover field technician and at 1130 today, found a male WILSON'S PLOVER at Cupsogue beach county park. An iPhone-scoped shot can be seen here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/85270080@N05/14042030866/ Directions- from the giant parking lot, walk or drive west down the dirt road (truck recommended if driving) to the metal gate halfway down the park. Walk a little past the gate until the grassy dunes dissipate to sand and are much shorter, take a right here at the roped path to the bay side. The bird was right in the vicinity of this path in the bay-beach area. Additionally, we had at least one American Golden-Plover (possibly two) here two days ago in the park. PLEASE be careful to not disturb the Piping Plovers in the vicinity, and remember to stay in designated walking areas!

An iPhone-scoped shot can be seen here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/85270080@N05/14042030866/ Directions- from the giant parking lot, walk or drive west down the dirt road (truck recommended if driving) to the metal gate halfway down the park. Walk a little past the gate until the grassy dunes dissipate to sand and are much shorter, take a right here at the roped path to the bay side. The bird was right in the vicinity of this path in the bay-beach area. Additionally, we had at least one American Golden-Plover (possibly two) here two days ago in the park. PLEASE be careful to not disturb the Piping Plovers in the vicinity, and remember to stay in designated walking areas!

Re:[nysbirds-l] WILSON'S PLOVER, Cupsogue Beach County Park, Westhampton Beach
The Wilson's Plover is a great find. But I'm even more intrigued by the American Golden Plovers also mentioned as an aside. American Golden Plover is an uncommon migrant in spring on Long Island, and it seems fairly early as well. As there have been ~20 EUROPEAN Golden Plovers reported up in Newfoundland within the past week I think anyone chasing the Wilson's should also make a concerted effort to to find, carefully study, and photograph any pluvialis plovers found. -- 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/ --
[nysbirds-l] Wilson's Plover Golden Plover - No, but 2 consolation prizes instead !
On Tuesday, between 2:30 and ~ 6:00 PM, I looked for the previously reported species, from Cupsogue Co. Pk. to Shinnicock Inlet, without success. I was rewarded for my efforts by finding FOS Boat-tailed Grackles (2) in the marsh along Dune Rd, w/o the Ponquogue Bridge. At the inlet I picked up an immature Iceland Gull, which looked like one of the individuals that favored this location during this past winter. There was also a raff of scooters just inside the mouth of the inlet, but due to the high winds and rough wave action, I was unable to get a real accurate count (estimated ~ 230 birds)and the only specie I was sure of, was Surf Scooter, of which there were many.

[nysbirds-l] Wilson's Plover Still Present at Jones Beach West End
Steve Schellenger re-found Andrew Baksh's Wilson's Plover at Jones Beach West End this evening. The bird was in the swale (much drier now) on the beach side of the Field 2 pavilion and was seen by Tom Burke and several other birders in the day's waning light.

[nysbirds-l] Wilson's Plover @Jones Beach West End...
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.
Good and responsible birding!
