[nysbirds-l] Henslow’s Sparrow & respecting graves
Just a gentle reminder for anyone visiting Green-Wood Cemetery to see the Henslow’s Sparrow. Headstones are not seats or tripods. Some are very old & easily damaged. I mention this based on photos I’ve been sent. Please be respectful, it is an historic, active cemetery.

[nysbirds-l] East Hampton: orange-crowned warbler; pink-footed goose; snow geese
The day started nicely with a small mixed flock of robins and cedar waxwings in my yard. Decided to check Hook Pond for rare geese and tundra swan, and though dipping on them, I was rewarded with an orange-crowned warbler south of Hook Pond in some bayberry shrubs. At Wainscott Pond, there were thousands of canada geese, 2 adult snow geese and at least 1 juvenile; a blue morph snow goose, and a pink-footed goose. I only got a poor view that showed some pink on the bill and leg, but not as clearly as I have seen it in the past (or wanted on this one), and brownish rather than blackish tone to the neck and head. Kudos to Anthony Collerton who was confident on the i.d. from some pics I sent him -- based on the brown coloring and structure of the bill. If anyone tries for the Wainscott birds (unsucessfully), you may also want to try west on Daniel's Lane, where some of the Wainscott flock relocated later in the day. *Bruce Horwith* *16 Salt Marsh Path* *East Hampton, NY 11937* *(631) 599-0040 cell phone* -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
[nysbirds-l] Orange Crowned Warbler- oceanside MNSA , nassau county
Hi all, Just had a Orange Crowned Warbler on the bedell creek side of the nature study, for those very familiar with the MNSA it was right near the fence where we see 'Buster' the dog,... walk the path behind the building, curving around the corner and up that path a little until the green fence ends, that seemed the general area it preferred. Good luck! -Kev -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
