[nysbirds-l] Henslow's Sparrow - Shawangunk Grasslands NWR

I emailed my buddy Ralph Tabor to let him know that I'd be up Monday morning and also to ask him about the conditions of the trails, as I heard that they were overgrown. So what does Ralph do? He goes and mows the trails prior to my arrival! What a swell guy:-) Anyway, the male HENSLOW'S SPARROW

You'd be right Mike.  I used to work at the refuge when it was first formed and did the checklist for it and Wallkill.  They used to nest there many years ago, but have not been seen there until recently and definitely not on territory.   Very nice bird.  Let's keep our fingers crossed. Andrew

The existing hotspot has been renamed from 'Oakwood Beach--tidal marshes' to 'Oakwood Beach--tidal marshes, NW to Mill Rd.' in Richmond County to clarify the extent of the marshes. This is based on the Common Gallinule sighting. If you wish to merge your personal location with an existing hotspot
