Subject: [nysbirds-l] Sandwich Tern Near Breezy Point, Queens

While fishing near the Ambrose Light this morning, my colleague Tom Brown of 
College of Staten Island observed a Sandwich Tern.

He reports that it was not far off of Breezy Point, Queens.

[nysbirds-l] Adult Baird's sandpiper on east pond at Jamaica Bay

2016-07-24 Thread Isaac Grant
First found the bird on the first spit south of dead mans cove. It then flew  
across the pond and landed opposite the island. Again very few birds here. 
Birds are extremely wary and keep flushing all the time when a train passes or 
an osprey flies over or the wind blows. 

Stilt Sandpipers down to 8

SB Dowitchers down to 22

No sign of the Pectoral

Only increase is there are now 19 Semipalmated Plovers.
