[nysbirds-l] Nelson's Sparrow, Randall's Island (New York County)

Andrew Farnsworth and I birded the northeast shore of Randall's Island at noon today and had our first NELSON'S SPARROW of the season in the saltmarsh directly north of baseball field #42. To see it, we had to take advantage of low tide and climb along the rocks that line the shore, heading west

RE: [nysbirds-l] N. Wheater YES

I think there was similar debate in 2011 for the N. wheatear that spent a few days at croton train station http://cortlandt.dailyvoice.com/neighbors/rare-bird-sighted-croton-train-station L. Trachtenberg Ossining From: bounce-118101662-10490...@list.cornell.edu

RE: [nysbirds-l] N. Wheater YES

This is more difficult than it might seem. Although we can probably exclude an adult male, distinguishing the other three age/sex combos in the field is very difficult. This puts us around the same place we found ourselves back in 2001, when Angus and others of us staked out the then state of
