[nysbirds-l] Prospect Park: Common Merganser, Pine Siskin, etc

2013-03-07 Thread gabriel willow 
While working in Prospect Park, Brooklyn today, I took a quick jaunt outside 
and was surprised by the amount of bird activity in spite of the wind and iffy 
weather.  
Up at the feeders by Breeze Hill there was a large flock of Red-winged 
Blackbirds (about 30 birds); the males were "konk-a-ree"ing despite the wintry 
conditions.  They know Spring is almost here.  Also at the feeders were several 
Northern Cardinals, House Finches, Am. Goldfinches, Song Sparrows, W-t 
Sparrows, and 9 or 10 Pine Siskins, which I haven't seen in several weeks.  
Down on the Lullwater/Lake area (between the Terrace Bridge and Lakeside 
construction) there was a nice diversity of waterfowl: two Bufflehead, a dozen 
Ruddy Ducks, several Am. Coot, six Hooded Mergansers, and more surprisingly, 
with the hoodies was a lovely female Common Merganser.  There were also two 
female Ring-necked Ducks in the mixed flock.
Stay warm,

[nysbirds-l] Gyrfalcon sightings

2013-03-07 Thread Shane Blodgett 
As I have been out of town for last 2 weeks I may be one of the few that has 
not had a chance to look for this bird. If anyone has seen the Gyr this week or 
sees it today or tomorrow I would appreciate a heads-up. Negative reports also 
appreciated. 

Thanks,

2013-03-07 Thread Christopher T. Tessaglia-Hymes 
Typically, a large grouping of geese on the ground or in the air is called a 
flock and a large, lengthy, flock in the air may also be called a skein.

But, let's not make a big deal of this, please.

Thank you!
