[nysbirds-l] N.Y. County (NYC) 11/6-10; Ash-throated Flycatcher, W.-w. Scoter, Com. Redpolls, Eve. Grosbeaks, Y.-br. Chat, & other migrants & arrivals

2020-11-11 Thread Thomas Fiore
Extralimital - but just a bit north of the New York/Canada border has been a 
TAIGA BEAN-GOOSE, wandering slightly at their borders from Quebec, to Ontario 
thru Nov. 10th - this is the rarer of the two Bean-Geese species that have 
occured in N. America; this bird could potentially choose to move south at any 
point, and perhaps also moving if the flock[s] it’s been with move as a group. 
That would mean a fairly good chance the Bean Goose might pass through NY 
state, or stop in here. Other extra-limital and quite-rare finds in the region 
have included a Yellow-nosed Albatross photographed off of Virginia’s shores 
well out in the Atlantic on Nov. 8th, an Ancient Murrelet photographed at Cape 
Race, Massachusetts on Nov. 9th, & a lingering Sharp-tailed Sandpiper recently 
in Delaware, with a Ruff in New Jersey to Nov. 10th.

 - - - - - - -
New York County (in N.Y. City), including Manhattan & Randall’s Island, plus 
Governors Island (which is now closed for the winter to the public) & adjacent 
waters and sky-views.

Back on Nov. 3rd, a Cackling Goose was seen (R. Zucker) in diurnal movement 
over the west side of Manhattan. One of the somewhat more-likely means of 
spotting this species from N.Y. County is to scrutinize fly-over flocks when 
possible, and try to note bill-size as well as the overall size in relation to 
the usual Canada Geese the species is likely to be found with; obviously if any 
Cacklers were also calling & the observer is familiar with the calls, so much 
the better in terms of adding to an ID. This species may be more regular, 
especially as a migrant (& in long-distance over-flights, or not) than is 
understood. We may start to see more geese come down from the north, in coming 
weeks as weather -presumably!- gets back to a more-expected feel and 
temperatures drop off.

…..
Fri., Nov. 6 through Mon., Nov. 9 -

Highlights included: COMMON REDPOLLS, EVENING GROSBEAKS, finch-flights 
(obviously!), WHITE-WINGED SCOTER, LESSER SCAUP,  Yellow-crowned Night-Heron, 
multiple Monk Parakeets, ASH-THROATED FLYCATCHER (plus previous 
'Myiarchus-genus’ flycatcher), Marsh Wrens, E. BLUEBIRDS, Yellow-breasted CHAT, 
 E. Meadowlark, Rusty Blackbird, American Warblers of at least these 14 
species:  Tennessee Warbler, Nashville Warbler, Northern Parula, Magnolia 
Warbler, Cape May Warbler, Black-throated Blue Warbler, Yellow-rumped [Myrtle] 
Warbler, Pine Warbler, Palm Warbler, Blackpoll Warbler, Black-and-white 
Warbler, American Redstart, Ovenbird, Common Yellowthroat; (plus an as-yet 
unconfirmed report of Connecticut, which would be a very very late occurrence 
of the latter warbler sp.)

...
Friday, Nov. 6 - Several later observers were able to see the Yellow-breasted 
CHAT photographed (& also found by A. Deutsch), in Union Square Park in 
mid-lower Manhattan in the morning. A Black Vulture was seen as a fly-over from 
Central Park (from not far west of the Great Lawn).  E. Bluebirds have 
continued on, all through the report-period, in Central Park.

...
Sat., Nov. 7 - Wind had shifted from the northwest overnight, although rather 
light, then later in the day turned from a SW & eventually more 
straight-southerly direction. The temperature gained quickly through the day to 
produce what felt much more like an end-of-summer day, rather than the end of 
the first week of November.

Among the top highlights of the day were a White-winged Scoter from Inwood Hill 
Park, & Evening Grosbeak from elsewhere in Manhattan. While the White-winged 
Scoter was seen (& nicely photographed) in flight, there was another sighting - 
see Nov. 8th, AND these were 2 different scoters, that is: the Nov. 7th 
White-winged was a male scoter, while the following day's was a female or poss. 
young male. The Hudson River off Manhattan is potentially one of the better 
places in N.Y. County to attempt to see (read, find) Scoters of any kind, & 
also can have potential for all sorts of other waterfowl, & other waterbirds, & 
more. It’s a question of a little luck and often, a lot of patient, skilled 
looking.

Evening Grosbeaks have been seen, and their numbers may potentially increase, & 
with luck also be found feeding/perching for some time, or possibly lingering 
for any amount of time, as had happened not that long ago with a singleton in 
Riverside Park, Manhattan, & with others that year for lesser lengths of time. 
A majority of all the finch species in migration and passing through this fall 
have been fly-bys, and this has been so in many locations, including out 
through the wider region, beyond N.Y. City.

Singles of Lesser Scaup, as well as Greater Scaup, chanced into the Central 
Park reservoir, both now rare/uncommon there (more than 30 years ago, both 
species were annual & regular, & longer ago, sometimes in prodigious numbers 
there.).  An American Pipit, as well as E. Meadowlark and a somewhat-late 
Rose-breasted Grosbeak were also among sightings at Inwood Hill Park.  A 
lingering Marsh Wren
