I took a very brief swing through Myers Point Park today (11/11), noting a handful of SNOW BUNTINGS cryptically foraging in short weeds at the base of the spit, numerous RING-BILLED GULLS on the beach around the spit and on gravel bars off Salt Point, and a DOUBLE CRESTED CORMORANT swimming off shore.
I also believe I saw the juvenile THAYER'S GULL today at Stewart Park on the dock being photographed perhaps by Tom Johnson. Yesterday I believe I saw it on the docks at Treman Marina, but the day before I was not able to pick it out there, perhaps because it was among a cloud of gulls which left for Stewart Park as I was still approaching from a distance. --Dave Nutter -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES Archives: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.html 2) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
