I'm hearing lots of low-flying thrushes. Not a lot else so far.

[nysbirds-l] Radar showing large nocturnal flight tonight in NY

2020-09-14 Thread David Nicosia
All,

Radars in NY state are exploding with bird echoes after sunset. These are
the biggest radar migration signatures I have seen so far this fall.
Tomorrow could be really good. Hope you can get out there.

All the best and stay safe!

[cayugabirds-l] Green Heron (Ringwood Rd)

2020-09-14 Thread Eveline V. Ferretti
Green Heron spied on this evening’s walk with our dog, in a marshy area at the 
top of Ringwood Rd. S/he flew up from the reedy water’s edge to perch on a dead 
tree branch, looking for all the world like an important VIP guest wearing a 
fancy puffed up coat.  Have seen Blue Herons and a verrry occasional American 
Bittern (as in 2x over 25 years) in this area. Now my first Green Heron!

No, I'm not too unfamiliar with their fall plumage, or with
distinguishing them in general, honestly.
Checking Sibley's now, the thing that made me think peep was the
stripe down its wings during flight, which looks like Red-Necked or
Red and not Wilson's.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Phalarope off Stewart Park

I was windsurfing between east shore park and the piling cluster. Somewhere near the middle of the lake, just south of the piling cluster, I was surprised to see a little shorebird flying away from me. "What are you doing out here, peep?" I thought, and then saw the bird land just a few feet away. Phalarope! I thought, and sure enough I could see it floating on the water nodding back and forth like a wind up toy. I was moving pretty slowly on that reach. On the next reach we were planing fast and I was glad to find the bird again at nearly the same spot, but this time I think my fast approach may have scared it farther away, as I did not see it since.If the bird were at the same spot it would be scopable from the west side of Stewart Park looming due north.Suan_Composed by thumb and autocorrect.
