A couple of hours at Jones Beach provided the same birds as others (Snowy Owl, etc.) but was perhaps most notable for a good selection of passerines including a Fox Sparrow, 4 American Tree Sparrows, an 'Ipswich' Sparrow, a Palm Warbler and 16 Snow Buntings among the hoards of Song Sparrows and Yellow-rumped Warblers.
Spent some time this afternoon looking for the Barrow's Goldeneye and Barn Owl at Jamaica Bay, and the Northern Shrike at Floyd Bennett - but no luck with any of them. -- 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/[email protected]/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/ --
