[nysbirds-l] The Gargeny at Montezuma Refuge
Any recent information on this bird? I have the opportunity to be nearby and could stop tomorrow or Tuesday. Not to be a broken record, as I've asked this before, but has anyone investigated the possibility that this bird is an escapee? Any informed opinion on this topic would be appreciated.

[nysbirds-l] West End, Jones Beach Shorebirds (Nassau Co.)
This morning, on an outgoing tide, there were a decent variety of shorebirds on the bar at the West End marina, and a good variety in the ponds between WE2 and the nature preserve. Highlights included some fifteen Western Willets on the sandbar along with four Red Knots. On the ponds were two Stilt Sandpipers and a Pectoral Sandpiper along with an immature Yellow-crowned Night Heron. Although shorebird numbers were not particularly impressive, variety was good with fourteen species recorded.

[nysbirds-l] Myesr;s point Ithaca NY and OT request:Pantanal, Brazil Birdinng
Hi all, I spent a couple of hours at Myers Point yesterday afternoon. It was delightful to watch many fledglings, young and adults interactions. There was family of Eastern Kingbirds which were being fed by the adults and young were so eager to be fed, always ready to open their mounts at the approach of the parent. It was neat to see the bright pink gape of young. Then there were families of Barn Swallows, Cedar Waxwings and Ospreys. All at different stages of development. It was almost more than an hour and half since the male Osprey brought any fish to the female and young. At the end of that hour they became so restless and each and everyone is was looking hopefully for the father to come. And female kept persistently calling. When we were watching through the scope one of the young directly was watching us. It would shake its head to get in a snaky fashion and peer at us intently. An OT request- Has anyone been to Pantanal, Brazil area on their own, not with a bird guide or tour but in adventurous mode? If so and you don't mind sharing some information please directly contact me at m...@cornell.edu because I want to know what locations would you recommend and thanks in advance.
