Just got this from John Votta in NJ who wanted to me to send it to the NY listserv. I couldn't see any photo but maybe someone else can. If it's true then it would be an awesome bird. Andrew

I am a member on the NJ Listserv and I frequent a bird ID website and someone from the UK was asking about this ID from 8/31. I know it is a week later but as you can see these pics were just posted today. I am forwarding you the link to the forum. Again these are not my PICs and I did not see the G. Kiskadee at all but he states it was right near the Intrepid. I know it is a great bird for NYC so I needed to let someone know. Maybe a freeloader on a cruise ship or an Irene displacement??? http://www.whatbird.com/forums/forums/thread/256501.aspx John -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
