[nysbirds-l] Probable Mitred Parakeet in Yonkers

2017-07-12 Thread Andrew Block 
I had what I believe was a Mitred Parakeet flying north along the Croton 
Aqueduct parallel to Hancock Ave. last weekend.  I didn't get a look at it but 
have heard them before and using sources on the net matched the calls to that 
species.  I've seen the NYC flock once in the Bronx at NYBG so maybe this was 
one or more of those making rounds?  I will keep an eye out for it in case it's 
living in the area.
