Re:[nysbirds-l] early YTWA records

We have had several in the last ten years try to winter in Region 5. At least one made it well into a normal wintry January and may have survived to the end. The Valley Stream SP bird may have shown up as part of a northbound movement, but can one be sure it didn't winter there? David

[nysbirds-l] Black Skimmer Friday - No

The Black Skimmer found by John Germain and seen Wed and Thurs on Fulton's Lake Neatahwanta was not seen on Friday. Observers were present from 4pm until 9pm. I'm not suggesting it's gone or won't come back - the lake itself seems good for it but does not have a lot of loafing areas. Here's

[nysbirds-l] Elegant Tern - LI bird vs. Niagara River

Photos I've seen of the Long Island bird from 4-4.5 months ago show it in a similar plumage. Perhaps comparing photos will find something that confirms same/different bird, especially as more photos of the Niagara River bird emerge. Congratulations to Vicki Rothman on a great find! David

[nysbirds-l] Pink-footed Goose - Pennellville (Oswego County)

Though it was not the first goose flock I looked through today, it was the first goose I put binoculars on in that particular flock. Originally found on CR-264 just north of the CR-54 intersection in Pennellville, the geese took flight after other birders arrived but was found close by on

[cayugabirds-l] Feb. records of Blue-winged Teal

Is anyone aware of any February records of BLUE-WINGED TEAL? The closest I've found so far is a Mar 1, 1971 record from Oneida Lake, but it would seem likely there may be a Feb. record from JBWR, MNWR, etc. Bull (1997) shows Mar 6th as the first arrival date. Curious if the Fair Haven bird

Re:[nysbirds-l] Robert Moses power plant fishing platform

The fishing platform referred to by Tom has been closed this winter due to ice build up. I'm not sure when it is scheduled to re-open, some time soon I would imagine. Back in November I found a Black-headed Gull on the upriver roosting rocks. It stood there for hours, but in the next
