[nysbirds-l] Governors Island: Sat. 21-Oct-2017

2017-10-21 Thread Ben Cacace
*NY County Highlights (Fall season): *

Cooper's Hawk, Red-headed Woodpecker (immature), Palm Warbler (12), Vesper
Sparrow & Savannah Sparrow (3).

The *Vesper Sparrow* was spotted this morning by Peter Dorosh. It was in
the same place late in the day when I found it at the south side of Fort
Jay along the moat and on the Parade Ground. At one point it flew to the
grasses inside Fort Jay near the SW speaker pole.

Shortly after this the immature *Red-headed Woodpecker* was heard then seen
near the top of the tree just north of the SW speaker pole at Fort Jay.

Both birds are new for the Governors Island list bringing the total species
to #185 & #186 respectively on eBird.

*1st hour*: *19 spp.*; *2nd*: *+3*; *3rd*: *+2*; *4th*: *+5* = *29 spp.*
