[nysbirds-l] Stirling S.F. Brewster's Warbler, Golden-winged Warblers, and more

2017-05-28 Thread Andrew Block 
Went to Stirling S.F. today with Bronx River-Sound Shore Audubon and had a 
wonderful day.  Bird wise things started off slowish at the nature center area 
but we did get Hooded Warbler and a few other common birds.  When we went to 
Ironwood Rd. things started picking up.  Along the road itself we got the usual 
forest birds including Scarlet Tanager, Red-eyed Vireo, Louisiana Waterthrush, 
etc.  
At the powerline cut on the left side we had Golden-winged, Blue-winged, 
Yellow, Cerulean and Prairie Warblers, Field Sparrow, and Rose-breasted 
Grosbeak as well as the other common species.  There was also supposed to be a 
Yellow-breasted Chat there too, but I did not see or hear it.  
On the right side of the cut we had most of the same species plus Yellow-billed 
Cuckoo, a white bellied/throated and pale yellow breasted backcross male 
Brewster's warbler, Broad-winged Hawk, Common Raven, and others.  The 
Brewster's and a Golden-winged gave nice long looks at themselves. 
Besides birds it was a great day for herps.  I had several Common Five-lined 
Skinks, caught a 5+ ft. Black Ratsnake, a 4+ ft. Northern Black Racer, a 
Northern Watersnake, a Wood Turtle (thanks Bernie), Green, Bull, and Gray 
Treefrogs. Butterflies were around everywhere too especially Spicebush and 
Eastern Tiger Swallowtails.
I guess I should've known it'd be such a great day when I walked outside my 
house and found a new $100 dollar bill on the street:-)

[nysbirds-l] Prospect Park Swainson's Warbler: Caution

2017-05-28 Thread Sean Sime 
Walking towards the Midwood from Center Drive at approximately 3pm today I
could already hear the song of the Swainson's Warbler from the area just
north of the shipping containers. Within minutes I was able to track down
the call to an Iphone 6 in the hands of a visiting birder.
With no confirmed visuals today or yesterday caution should be exercised if
the bird is "heard only". There are very few clear sight lines from path to
path and regardless if you agree with using playback or not it is clear the
technique is being practiced daily.

It was also clear that many birds left overnight. I did not see a single
Gray-cheeked, Swainson's or Wood Thrush in the Midwood when there were 20+
in the area the day before.

Good birding!

[nysbirds-l] Doodletown

2017-05-28 Thread Joseph Wallace 
A morning's walk through Doodletown, Bear Mountain State Park, was
typically productive (and typically wonderful). Cerulean Warblers were
apparent throughout, with the best views coming along the hillside near the
entrance (including an eye-level female and a singing male on a bare
branch) and near the Herbert Cemetery (another singing male). We also heard
and saw several Hooded Warblers, with the best view again coming opposite
Herbert Cemetery: a singing, eye-level male in beautiful plumage. Other
highlights included several cuckoos (calling Yellow-billed especially);
abundant vireos (including a Yellow-throated battling a catbird for turf);
and a Green Heron perched on a tree branch overlooking the pond. Non-avian
pleasures included a beaver in the pond; a couple of northern watersnakes;
and a pair of red efts, as gorgeous as always against the muddy trail.

[nysbirds-l] YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER at Bayard Cutting Arboretum -YES

2017-05-28 Thread John Gluth 
One singing male, heard and seen within 100 yards east of the parking lot. 
Ranged around a fair amount, at one point flying west to the other side of the 
park entrance road. Favored the up reaches of the various trees I saw it in 
(Sycamore, Red Oak, E. White Pine, Douglas Fir), so poor views. Has gone silent 
now. No apparent activity at previous known location (Ye Olde Pump House).

[nysbirds-l] YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER at Bayard Cutting Arboretum -YES

2017-05-28 Thread John Gluth 
One singing male, heard and seen within 100 yards east of the parking lot. 
Ranged around a fair amount, at one point flying west to the other side of the 
park entrance road. Favored the up reaches of the various trees I saw it in 
(Sycamore, Red Oak, E. White Pine, Douglas Fir), so poor views. Has gone silent 
now. No apparent activity at previous known location (Ye Olde Pump House).

[nysbirds-l] Top 10 Locations: Additional County (NYS eBird Hotspots)

2017-05-28 Thread Ben Cacace 
Location pages have been created for the current top 10 sites for Ontario
County based on total species seen. Numbers in parentheses represents the #
of sub-locations for these sites.

If you spot any issues with the pages please let me know off list. Also, it
would be appreciated if you could help verify that the 'Directions' link on
the location pages points to a public parking spot or to an entrance to the
site. Thanks!

Total # of shared locations (hotspots) added to 10 new pages is 25 bringing
the total coverage to 1,520 hotspots or 26.9% of 5,654 for New York State.

RE: [nysbirds-l] Henslow's Sparrow

2017-05-28 Thread Rick 
Google map in my posting from last may help.

 

Leave parking lot to the south (to the right when coming into the lot from 
entrance road). Take a small path (not the path to the overlook). Follow this 
nearly to the property edge and follow it around to the left (east).  After a 
bit, there is  smaller trail off the to the left again (north), where there is 
a bench on the right.  You can see the small, grayish blind ahead. That’s where 
the Dickcissel was yesterday; Henslow’s is at a small turn in the path, maybe 
20 yards before  the blind. Also look for the birders.

Still there, 50 yards before the blind, to the left as you approach blind.  
Dickcissel near blind.
