[nysbirds-l] Cayuga Brown Booby - NO

2016-09-24 Thread Tim Healy
An update for all you chasers out there, the Brown Booby has not been seen in 
some time. The last eBird report came yesterday morning with no details other 
than "continuing", and I add my own fruitless vigil today to negative reports 
from the previous afternoon. A few distant cormorants briefly gave me hope 
through the heat shimmer, but there was no sign of the bird from 8:45 to 10:10. 
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

[nysbirds-l] Croton point park pipits

2016-09-24 Thread Larry Trachtenberg
Autumn is here first flock of American pipits on landfill about 20 birds. At 
least 8 kestrel likely double digits. Breeze, sky clearing, perfect morning 
light, alonetime after a week of work.  Can't beat that. So here's to good 
birding and the late great Buckwheat Zydeco.
