[nysbirds-l] JBWR East Pond Report

2017-09-01 Thread Andrew Baksh
I birded the East Pond today on two tide cycles. First this morning and then 
later this afternoon. 

Not a lot of Shorebirds and a marauding Peregrine Falcon made the birds quite 
skittish. I would estimate the numbers at around 200 and I am being generous.

In total 15 species of Shorebirds. The highlights were BAIRD's SANDPIPER (1), 
WESTERN SANDPIPER (2), PECTORAL SANDPIPER (4), WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPER (7) and 
STILT SANDPIPER (10)

One of Pectoral Sandpiper was a very bright looking bird almost orange like in 
the face. I spotted the group of Pecs on the algal mat just South of the island 
but never got solid looks as they were flushed by the Peregrine. Keep an eye 
out if only to rule out anything other than...

Duckage on the pond is thickening with a build up of Green-winged Teals (47) 
joining the many Blue-winged Teals.

An Ovenbird greeting me at home was a another sign that Shorebird season is 
coming to a close. Boo!

Cheers,

and activist)

others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own abhorrence." ~ Frederick

[nysbirds-l] Red-necked Phalaropes North Fork LI

2017-09-01 Thread Hugh McGuinness
I haven't seen this posted on NYSBIRDS. From Rick Kedenburg:

There have been at least 3 Red-necked Phalaropes, (Not Red) have been seen
all this morning and currently just off the beach between Kenny’s Beach in
Southold and as far west as Peconic Dunes Camp.
You can access the beach from Kenny’s or from Soundview Dunes County Park
just west of their location. Soundview Dunes , known as Bittner’s to us
locals, is located along Soundview Ave about half way between Kenny’s and
Goldsmith’s Inlet.

These birds are not shy as you can get within ten feet of them as you walk
along the shore.

[nysbirds-l] HLSP Warning

2017-09-01 Thread Michael Zito
Hello, please be careful at Hempstead Lake State Park, Liz DiNapoli and myself 
came across a stray brown dog and park police pulled up letting us know the dog 
is very aggressive and possibly rabid.  The dog took off with park police in 
pursuit, but it was not captured.  This is the north side of field 3.  Happy 
fall birding.

[nysbirds-l] Red-Necked Phalarropes

2017-09-01 Thread Frederick Kedenburg
There have been at least 3 Red-necked Phalaropes, (Not Red) have been seen all 
this morning and currently just off the beach between Kenny’s Beach in Southold 
and as far west as Peconic Dunes Camp.
You can access the beach from Kenny’s or from Soundview Dunes County Park just 
west of their location. Soundview Dunes , known as Bittner’s to us locals, is 
located along Soundview Ave about half way between Kenny’s and Goldsmith’s 
Inlet.

These birds are not shy as you can get within ten feet of them as you walk 
along the shore.

A few more photos to follow.

[nysbirds-l] Red-necked Phalaropes in Southold

2017-09-01 Thread Seth Ausubel
Five Red-necked Phalaropes are being seen this morning in the surf zone on Long 
Island Sound east of Goldsmith’s Inlet, Southold, Suffolk County.  A local 
resident forwarded photos and video showing at least three of the birds which 
are juveniles.  As of this point they are still there. The closest access is 
probably from a small parking area at Peconic Dunes County Park, on Soundview 
Avenue between Mill Rd. and Kenny’s Rd. You can walk the path through the woods 
to the beach.  You might also be able to access the area from the parking lot 
at Goldsmith’s Inlet (I’m not sure if parking is reserved for town residents).
