[~BEGIN RBA TAPE~]

Greetings! This is the New York Rare Bird Alert for Friday, November 15,
2019 at 9:00 pm.

The highlights of today’s tape are BROWN PELICAN, ASH-THROATED FLYCATCHER,
WESTERN KINGBIRD, NORTHERN SHRIKE, a possible WESTERN MEADOWLARK, GOLDEN
EAGLE, HARLEQUIN DUCK, MARBLED GODWIT, ICELAND GULL, and a late SUMMER
TANAGER.

A BROWN PELICAN seen soaring over Coney Island Creek Park early last
Saturday morning may have been the same one spotted later that day at 2
different locations on Staten Island, while the BROWN PELICAN out in
Montauk was still present yesterday around the inlet to Lake Montauk, often
seen on the west side of the inlet but sometimes venturing in as far as the
Coast Guard Station.

A couple of ASH-THROATED FLYCATCHERS this week began with one Monday only
at Fort Wadsworth on Staten Island, followed by one found today out in
Yaphank at the Suffolk County Farm and Education Center.  The Yaphank
Flycatcher was frequenting the southern border of the park near the
railroad tracks; this park is located off Yaphank Avenue south of Exit 67
on the Long Island Expressway.

Of the 2 WESTERN KINGBIRDS present last week at Jones Beach West End, both
were noted up to last Sunday, and one was still near the
now-under-construction Roosevelt Nature Center yesterday.

An adult NORTHERN SHRIKE was photographed yesterday morning at Caumsett
State Park, found by the salt marsh near Lloyd Point at the north end of
the park.

Last Saturday morning a birder had a brief but very intriguing encounter
with a Meadowlark at Crab Meadow Beach in Northport, during which the call
note of the Meadowlark was recorded. The lower pitch of the call note
coupled with certain field marks suggested that WESTERN MEADOWLARK was a
possibility, but given the overlap and variability of field marks within
the Meadowlarks and the possibility even of hybrids, this bird’s identity
remains uncertain.

A highlight of any hawk watch, GOLDEN EAGLES appearing locally included 2
last Saturday, 1 at Brookfield Park on Staten Island and another at Laurel
Ridge Setauket Woods Nature Preserve; the latter site also produced 4
ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLERS, now fairly widespread in our area.

Local increases in waterfowl featured a female HARLEQUIN DUCK briefly
visiting Coney Island last Sunday before continuing east.  CACKLING GEESE
were reported from 5 Long Island sites this week, including a returning
bird at Hendrickson Park in Valley Stream.

An immature ICELAND GULL appeared last Sunday along the Hudson River near
Croton Point Park.

Two MARBLED GODWITS were still frequenting the bars around the Jones Beach
West End Coast Guard Station at least to Monday, and 4 or more LONG-BILLED
DOWITCHERS continue along Santapogue Creek off Venetian Boulevard in West
Babylon.  A few AMERICAN WOODCOCKS have been noted lately.

Two PARASITIC JAEGERS were spotted off Jones Beach last Sunday, with 6
LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULLS and 38 ROYAL TERNS also counted there.

A COMMON GALLINULE was at Mill Pond Park in Bellmore early in the week.

Certainly unexpected was the female SUMMER TANAGER reported in Central Park
earlier today, an interesting late date.

Among the SPARROWS, a few VESPERS continue to be seen locally, while late
lingering WARBLERS this week featured BLACK-AND-WHITE, AMERICAN REDSTART,
NORTHERN PARULA, BLACK-THROATED BLUE, BLACK-THROATED GREEN and WILSON’S.

To phone in reports please call Tom Burke at (914) 967-4922 and leave a
message.

[nysbirds-l] Jamaica Bay Legislation

2019-11-15 Thread Andrew Baksh

Dear All,

I hope I would count on your support. I am writing on behalf of the Jamaica Bay 
Ecowatchers. We need folks to contact Governor Cuomo and urge him to pass the 
Jamaica Bay Bill which would protect the bay from the dumping of harmful 
contaminants into its deep sections. The bill is awaiting his signature and if 
he does not call it up it will die. 

If you want to protect Jamacia Bay please take a few minutes to either call 
518-474-8390 or email to 
https://www.governor.ny.gov/content/governor-contact-form
and request that he pass assembly bill 5767 which is also Senate bill 4165 
which will protect Jamaica Bay. M

Thank You.

[nysbirds-l] Montauk CBC -- Saturday, December 21

2019-11-15 Thread Brent Bomkamp
The 2019 Montauk Christmas Bird Count will be held on Saturday, December
21. Teams of birders will roam the six territories in the count circle from
dawn (or before) to dusk, tallying as many individuals of as many species
as possible.  We are writing to invite you to join us on that day and to be
part of one of the oldest ongoing CBCs.

*Count Compilation: *

We are pleased to announce that thanks to the continued generosity of the
South Fork Natural History Museum, under the stewardship of Frank Quevedo,
the compilation dinner will be free of charge and conveniently located in
Bridgehampton for those heading west after birding.  In addition, we will
be streamlining the compilation process to allow more time for travel after
the compilation.

*If you are a returning participant, please report to your usual Territory
Leader for information on your count day itinerary, but please CC the
Compilers on your email to the Territory Leader so we can allocate
participants appropriately.*

If you are new to the count, please email the Compilers for a territory
assignment, indicating your first and second choice of territory.
Additionally, let us know of any relevant considerations for your
assignment (limited walking, a wish to bird with other named individuals,
time constraints, a morbid fear of counting scoters, a morbid fear of other
birders, etc.). We’d also appreciate it if you can provide a mobile phone
number in case we, or a territory leader, need to get in touch with news of
a rarity, weather issues, and so on.

 In addition, please let us know:

* If you know additional birders who you think would be appropriate to
invite to the count.  Feel free to instruct such individuals to contact the
Compilers for more information.

* If you know someone who would be interested in doing a “feeder watch”
within the count circle.

* If you know of an active feeder or other active “hot spot” that you
believe should be checked on count day.

* If you plan on searching for owls, woodcock and other crepuscular species.


We look forward to hearing from you soon and have our fingers crossed for
great weather and many fabulous birds on December 21st.
