[nysbirds-l] Pt Lookout Lark Sparrow - Directions and Photo
Hi all, Sorry for my poor initial directions, but I was trying to get the word out quickly and am not very familiar with the landmarks at the Point. Here are the more detailed directions: At the end of Lido Blvd, Point Lookout, Nassau Co., enter the gate to Fireman's Park. About 125 yards toward the water there is a small dirt path on the right paralleling the Jones Inlet Channel. Follow this path. The bird was first encountered about 75 yards along this path in a somewhat sandy area. It was feeding in the path, but flew to a small bare tree (fallen over a black pipe) about 10 feet off the right side of the path as I approached. It remained there for a full 5 to 10 minutes while my entire group obtained excellent views (bins not necessary!). GPS Lat/Lon coordinates are 40.59144, -73.57622. When we decided to move on, it continued feeding along the path a few yards in front of us. Finally, after about 100 yards of this, it jumped to another small bare shrub about 3 yards of the right side of the path. GPS Lat/Lon coordinates are 40.59068, -73.57659. It remained there as we continued to walk by. It is a very sharp looking bird (see photo at https://www.flickr.com/photos/awells48/albums, under eBird Photos ) and is very cooperative.

[nysbirds-l] Eurasian Wigeons @ Jamaica Bay East Pond Queens County
Wrapping up a January 1st 2016 day of birding, I decided I would leave some juice in the tank for tomorrow's Southern Nassau CBC and so spent the late afternoon sifting through the multitude of waterfowl on the East Pond at Jamaica Bay. While I could not turn any of the two Scaup species into something rarer, I did manage to see two drake Eurasian Wigeons. Very likely the continuing birds--although, (I think) only one was being reported as of late. Lisa Scheppke, was able to get on one when she joined me later scoping from the overlook. She also reported a flyby Raven on her way in to the East Pond.

Thanks to Alan's timely post I was able to find the Lark Sparrow around 4 PM. This is just south of the fireman's open area, at the beginning of the path that goes south along the inlet.

[nysbirds-l] DICKCISSEL, Southard's Pond Park (Suffolk Co.)
There is a 1st-winter male DICKCISSEL near the tennis courts at the southern end of the park (Park Ave. entrance). It's loosely associating with a few Song Sparrows, feeding in the short grass and bare ground between the courts and bike path. Quite confiding, not flushing despite joggers and dog walkers passing within 10-15 feet. I left it at ~3:15, in the capable hands of Pete Morris whom I texted just after finding it.
