[nysbirds-l] Croton point

2016-11-20 Thread Larry Trachtenberg
It seems as if the osprey finally cleared out of Croton Bay; at least I did not 
see one the mid afternoon of 11/20. There were some raptors though singles of 
harrier, kestrel and coopers hawk and at least 4 red tails.  Pipits made 
themselves quite visible for a change in the grass by mud/puddle left hand side 
of road just before main parking lot; also saw a few Am. Tree Sparrow in short 
supply in recent years  
No ash throated fly catchers up this way far as I could see but it was good to 
be cold during autumn's first real crisp windy day. That November chill where 
you can't really get warm but want to stay out; the smell of decay, the 
susurrus of the leaves---even if the birds were tucked in; inevitably a song

"The seeds that were silent all burst into bloom and decay. And night comes so 
quiet, it's close on the heels of the day."

Richard Aracil and I got an Iceland gull from Twin islands in Pelham bay park this afternoon, it is now perched on the rocks in front of High island. And a Goshawk just flew next to us on Twin island 5 min ago, likely still in the area. Pictures of both birds will be posted on ebird. Matthieu Sent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE device

RE:[nysbirds-l] north Brooklyn Ash-thr Flycatcher (NO, 11/20) Kings Co., NYC

2016-11-20 Thread Thomas Fiore
Sunday, 20th November, 2016 -

All - the Ash-throated Flycatcher that Dave Nyzio found on Saturday  
11/19 & seen by a number of others later that day (& thanks, Paul  
Sweet) was NOT found by some of us searching in the morning on Sunday  
11/20 at the same north Brooklyn (that's Kings County, NYC) location -  
this area is what was meant to be a NYC public park, on & near the  
East River - but has not been opened as a park, despite some signage  
(official NYC-Parks Dept.) that would seem to suggest it may be -or  
was- or will in future be - a public park (there are small public  
parks on the same street, within a few short blocks, with some East  
River views, both to the north & south of this area**).

It was two birders, me being one of them, who were approached by 2  
uniformed NYPD officers (with back-up in another vehicle on the  
street, which was an unmarked NYPD car).  From my perspective, the  
area was & is not clearly signed nor marked as either private or non- 
public, and the presence of an official NYC Parks Dept. sign (with the  
name of the park, the insignia & identification of the preceding & of  
normal / full size), may all suggest the area is not "closed" or "off- 
limits" - however, it IS fenced, with a few holes in said fence that  
may have been made some while ago, &, after the conversation with 3  
NYPD officers on-scene, it is now clear that no one ought to enter  
inside the fence.

Interactions with the NYPD officers was calm, quiet, fairly low-key,  
and non-agressive; in my opinion the officers were thoroughly  
professional, and my impression was that the main concern from them  
was that no one become hurt or suffer by being in a dis-used park /  
waterfront area, with the East River just some yards away (rough rocks  
& slabs of broken concrete & such, in the small inlet area, with trash  
& weedy growth obscuring some of the uneven ground, etc.) and, their  
not initially knowing what we were about - the best outcome perhaps  
would have been the rare flycatcher re-appearing as we spoke, & the  
chance to show a "good" bird to some locals 'on the job' this Sunday  
morning!  Anyhow, bottom-line as Sean Sime pointed out to this list:  
don't go into any areas if unsure the status of that property, &: if  
there are any further reports, stay on the outside, with a scope, for  
all viewing chances.

It ought be added that a modest-sized accipiter which I took for a  
Cooper's Hawk was hunting in the precise areas of the Ash-throated's  
known whereabouts of the day before - this hawk was chased a bit by a  
few American Crows, but it came back in - & was in trees very near,  
even same precise spot, where the Ash-throated had been photographed &  
observed on the day before - no, I am not suggesting the flycatcher  
was taken-out by the hawk, but it *might* have either chased it to a  
new location, or kept it sitting quietly so as to stay out of harm's  
way, if it was still in that area Sunday.

I was not in a position to seek this bird Saturday, & that day was far  
better as far as insectivorous birds, with an air temperature 30  
degrees higher, and much less wind to contend with than Sunday. I'm  
glad to have seen a report to this public list.

Incidental to the birding there, the NYPD officers spoken with  
included a variety of ethnicities and the officer in command was a  
woman.  Of (a few) other birds noticed in the area, a Red-tailed Hawk,  
a few Dark-eyed Juncos, at least 1 White-throated Sparrow, & a N.  
Mockingbird (that in the same area the Ash-throated had been seen on  
Saturday) were some; there were typical ducks & geese, gulls, & no  
doubt some other species in the immediate area - this is in the  
Williamsburg area, northern edge of Brooklyn close to the border with  
Queens Co.- & in excellent view of the East River & much of the  
Manhattan sky-line.  **The local street on which there is access to  
aII of this is Kent Avenue.  And finally, thanks & props to Brooklyn- 
birders!

Re: [ebirdsnyc] Re: [nysbirds-l] Brooklyn Ash-throated Flycatcher

2016-11-20 Thread Andrew Baksh
Good point but for many, the Nassau County ATFL might be out of the way. More 
interesting for me, is how the Brooklyn bird was reported. It appears to me 
that we are once again seeing a break down on how rare to uncommon birds are 
being reported.

I'll withhold fire for now but I again urge all in the game to keep up the 
generosity of sharing and sharing early and to the wider community. There are a 
lot of birders who don't text, tweet or are not using any form of social media 
to communicate. Let's not leave them out.

Thanks

We did not get the bird after 90 mins of looking. Cops showed up after
that. While they were taking info and issuing summonses, i kept looking.
they were good natured.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Brooklyn Ash-throated Flycatcher

2016-11-20 Thread Sean Sime
I just spoke with Bobbi who asked me to add the flycatcher was not seen
this morning in an hour+ of looking. I'm sure we will learn more as the day
progresses, but it appears that two birders were at least questioned by
police and possibly issued summonses.
If it wasn't clear before now, this is not an area that is open to the
public.

Be safe out there,

adjacent to the Bushwick Inlet ( the "creek"?) but a few blocks north of
