Betsy and I hit a couple of spots in the swamps today. When returning to our
car from Kumph Marsh, we ran into Glenn Adams and Pat Martin. Glenn had seen
a bird that he was unsure about but he had a photo, so he showed it to me.
It was a EURASIAN WIGEON, which he had seen from the Kanyoo Trail.
The Purple Finches which have been attending our feeders daily since our
last report 3 weeks ago, this morning swelled in number to at least a
dozen. We are hoping they will remain and breed, as there are previous
records of breeding in Suffolk county in the 1980 Breeding Bird Atlas.

A Yellow-throated Warbler continues at Hempstead Lake State Park. Mid-morning
it was seen along the northwestern edge of the open lawn area just north of the
pond (Macdonald Pond?), where people run their dogs. Other species of interest
were Bank and Rough-winged Swallows, Chimney Swift, Parula
True to form the NECO has returned to the Van Buren pond and is swimming and
diving along with a few Double-crests. It is here now.
Contrary to my earlier post and as correctly stated by Willie D'Anna, the
location is really in the Town of Pomfret, NY.
