[nysbirds-l] Rockefeller State Park

[Sean Camillieri]

Despite a late start to my day I found an Olive-sided Flycatcher present at the 
intersection of the Ash Loop and Overlook trail at Rockefeller State Park in 
Westchester County around 2:20.  Bird was perched high on top of a dead tree 
catching insects. Viewed for 40 minutes before the bird flew into the area 
where the Kentucky Warbler used to be seen. Great looks and a nearby Eastern 
Wood Pee-wee offered a great comparison. Awesome bird!

[nysbirds-l] Prospect Park Barnacle Goose

[holy...@juno.com]

I was in Prospect Park for a family picnic today and there was a barnacle goose 
swimming around the southwest part of the lake.  A quick perusal of the 
NYSBIRDS-L archive turned up that this goose was sighted way back in late Oct. 
in the same location but I didn't see any references to it on the List since 
then.  Has it been around the whole time and I just didn't realize it or has it 
been somewhere else for the past 7 months? C. Klein

[nysbirds-l] Yellow-throated Warbler - Caumsett SP (Suffolk Co.) 5/27

[Brendan Fogarty]

Hi all,

There was a Yellow-throated Warbler along the Fisherman's Drive at Caumsett 
State Park this afternoon around 1600. I first found the bird after it sang a 
strange song that I didn't recognize (something like a descending Canada 
Warbler, not the "classic" descending song). It did not sing again.

Coordinates of the YTWA: 40.939112,-73.477658

Other highlights were three Brant in the Sound, many Bank Swallows from the 
nearby colony, and a few Orchard Orioles.

[nysbirds-l] Birds at Rocky Pt. DEC, Wildwood State Park & EPCAL (c. Suffolk)

[John Gluth]

I birded the above 3 locations in central Suffolk County today, from 7:30-2:15. 
My main objective at Rocky Point was to see if the Kentucky Warbler that had 
established a territory there last year had returned. The bird was neither 
heard nor seen in its previous location or the surrounding woodlands. But good 
numbers of a nice suite of migrant breeders was present, as was an interesting 
transient--an ALDER FLYCATCHER. The Alder was not seen, 
but it sang repeatedly from scrubby transitional habitat, approximately here:   
40.942670°  -72.912199°. A video (captured just for the audio) can be reviewed 
here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jgluth_brb/8859497752/
Another interesting find was a vigorously singing N. Parula. A late migrant 
just passing through, or setting up a territory like the Kentucky did? A 
singing Blackpoll Warbler was in close proximity. 
Full eBird list: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S14261711

Highlights of 31 species found at Wildwood--a location I hadn't been to in 
years and had never birded before--included both cuckoos (1 Black-billed, 2 
Yellow-billed), 20+ Cedar Waxwings (some seen gritting and others feeding each 
other in the trees), and 4 Blackpoll Warblers. Full eBird list: 
http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S14262105

At EPCAL, at least 1 GRASSHOPPER SPARROW was seen and heard singing south of 
the west runway, seen from outside the gate on Grumman Blvd across from Line 
Road. The runway is still not accessible to driving due to the continuing 
storage there of some Sandy-wrecked cars. An E. Meadowlark or two were also 
heard.

[Terry]

Very slow day for me with little at the Point or elsewhere. At least until I 
got to Azala where there was a male Cerulean in the tres on the NE side of the 
pond. I missed the Red-Headed Woodpecker when I couldnt get past the big group 
blocking the path. Always another day.

[nysbirds-l] Prospect Park Barnacle Goose

[holy...@juno.com]

I was in Prospect Park for a family picnic today and there was a barnacle goose 
swimming around the southwest part of the lake.  A quick perusal of the 
NYSBIRDS-L archive turned up that this goose was sighted way back in late Oct. 
in the same location but I didn't see any references to it on the List since 
then.  Has it been around the whole time and I just didn't realize it or has it 
been somewhere else for the past 7 months? C. Klein

[nysbirds-l] Rockefeller State Park

[Sean Camillieri]

Despite a late start to my day I found an Olive-sided Flycatcher present at the 
intersection of the Ash Loop and Overlook trail at Rockefeller State Park in 
Westchester County around 2:20.  Bird was perched high on top of a dead tree 
catching insects. Viewed for 40 minutes before the bird flew into the area 
where the Kentucky Warbler used to be seen. Great looks and a nearby Eastern 
Wood Pee-wee offered a great comparison. Awesome bird!
