I went in search of the VG er, Violet-green Swallow, and did not catch up with it - though I did catch up with Richard Guthrie.Most if not all of us like short cuts, which include banding codes. They may serve banders well who use them professionally and are intimately familiar with that group’s vernacular, but for others, it can ( and obviously does ) lead to discord. I admit that at times being stumped by a code whose meaning escapes me. While there may have been temporary frustration, speaking for myself it does not foment much ado. To me, its no different to throw a HERG into the text, as it is to throw in the terms remiges, or patagial bar. I can look it up, because I have an interest in birds and birding and it’s a learning experience. When I am unfamiliar with a term I used to look it up in the dictionary. Now, all I have to do is double-click to highlight the word, right-click on it, and select “ search google for (the word)”. For band codes, I use the Sibley app when necessary. It allows one to search for a bird by band code. Mystery solved. Yeah, spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and incorrect band codes etc can interrupt the cognitive flow, but I suspect that some do not want to be ‘inconvenienced’ by having to do such odious work as ‘looking it up’ or knowing that the author used the wrong choice between they’re, their, or there. Oh well. In lieu of band codes I have found simple abbreviations to work as well if not better in saving my lazy self from the tortuous chore of spelling out the complete name. W pel may be easier than AWPE, for example. At other times I have found that 3-3 is better than the standard 2-2 of band codes. BarSwa and BanSwa eliminates one of many collisions that are inevitable, and only requires 2 more letters typed! Even the spoken word has room for simplification; one might say “Rough-wing” instead of Northern Rough-winged Swallow or “Moe Doe” instead of Mourning Dove. I enjoy the portmanteau and find that Redhatch rolls off the tongue so much better than Red-breasted Nuthatch; as does Americrow, Rublet, and many others.

It is good to know no one behaved badly. Very good. But it has happened in this region in the past. Egregiously.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Possible Ferruginous Hawk Orange co.
A problem not unique to this area is birders blocking or impeding traffic, trespassing onto property like a farm field, irrespective of signage ( if in doubt, *don't* ) blocking driveways, and being less than nice to the residents when they inquire about your presence or intentions. If you interact with locals be polite and share your excitement.There are farmers who are working and blocking their way is understandably irritating to them. If you see vehicles coming your way, move *before* they have to slow down or wait. If a problem is avoided, future visitors will be welcome.OTOH, a jerk will ruin it for all who arrive later. And you will be told the roads are private or closed off. In the recent past people were running across farm fields to get photos. If only telephoto lenses existed...In western states, trespassing would get you shot first. An effective deterrent. So let's all enjoy the birds AND behave like civilized adults. Arie Gilbert.

I realize at least from what I have read (e.g. with a homeowner on the road w the “Camel Farm” (Rte 62) and Mission Land Road) that there have been issues between property owners in the black dirt region and birders. Obviously owners have a right in this Country to keep folks off their property (the means used is another issue). Cedar Swamp Road seems to run about 2.7 miles, may I ask what makes the road itself a “private” road? L.

Liam et alInnocuous reminders of ethics by Tom is not the issue. The vitriol against those who post photos of owls, or pass along their location as a consequence is the problem. Time and again I have witnessed amateur photographers ( despite possessing rather expensive equipment) crowd and or chase owls, and some nitwits cut branches to get better shots. There are bad actors who result in limited publicity of these birds and Gus may frustrate them. And they may take this frustration out on him. It has been laughable to me to see people railing against others getting too close to an owl in central park, while non birders were walking much closer, talking loudly, and had dogs in tow. ...perspective...FWIW birding Bob in my estimation overuses tape. But it annoys birders FAR more than any perceived injury to the birds. I wish people behaved better, but they don't. It would be great if we didn't have to worry about the ill informed doing harm, but thats the reality. I myself was berated by an random adjacent birder who chastised me for using a laser to point out a bird. The beam was nowhere near the bird, but he felt strongly that i was going to blind it. No. Not at all. People need to chill. I hope that Gus's fears and issues are unfounded, but nowadays, probably not. Gus: sorry to hear it. Tom is really not the issue though IMHO.

This is one form of radicalization. Birders think they are entitled to do anything to protect birds, even violence against another human being. I am also a victim of this radicalization. Because I post photos of owls on twitter, I was subjected to what I call a “cancel culture.” Some birders started boycotting me and started to spread false rumors about me that I am a danger to birds.

What happened to Mr DeCandido and what I am hearing being said about me behind my back made me worried about my own safety. I became very cautious when I go birding especially that I do all my birding alone. I became afraid of birders. It is unbelievable, I know you would say that. But this is the truth. I became very withdrawn and started avoiding all birders, except those who I know they are friendly to me. I think you got my point on why Mr. Fiore should be blocked.

The problem is that there are significant number of birders who don’t agree with these ethics and some of them are very big in bird watching and birding research. It doesn’t matter what side you are on. The attack on the Capitol on Wednesday was committed by the radicalized right. But the radicalized left is also capable of similar acts if they have a chance. It is the radicalization that is the problem. And there is so much radicalization in the birding community, I am afraid. Some people might consider me radical when it comes to posting photos of owls or consider Mr DeCandido as radical in using songs playing but at least I don’t resort to violence or cancel culture or spreading false rumors and to the best of my knowledge Mr. DeCandido doesn’t do either.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Purposeful Birdwatching
Re doldrums: one cannot appreciate a great day of birding without bad days. Yin/Yang Also its important to have LOOB ( life outside of birding ) Arie Gilbert No. Babylon NY www.PowerBirder.Blogspot.com www.QCBirdClub.org Sent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE Device Original message From: Shaibal Mitra Date: 6/26/19 11:11 AM (GMT-05:00) To: "NYSBIRDS (NYSBIRDS-L@cornell.edu)" Subject: [nysbirds-l] Purposeful Birdwatching Judging from many, many recent conversations with fellow birders, it seems that people are having a tough time of it during these June doldrums. From independent sources over the past week, I've heard: "crushing disappointment;" "why is it so bad?;" "is it going to get better?" "something could show up, right?;" "didn't birding used to be good?;" "this place used to be good, I think" and more. And this has mostly been in the context of ordinary, local birding, not directly related to the more ominous big-picture concerns expressed by Chris recently. My usual response, admittedly slightly sadistic, is that birding excitement has always been relative. We modern observers can't begin to imagine how bad it was before the legal protection of birds was implemented a century ago, and yet the observers of that time still found birdwatching exciting--and were motivated enough to achieve protective legislation in the face of forces as ruthless and malevolent as those confronting us now. Imagine the excitement experienced by Harry Hathaway, the father of Rhode Island ornithology, when in 1894 he saw his first Great Blue Heron, after ten years of field work! It was Hathaway's ongoing work that eventually revealed that a unique, seemingly outlying, 19th Century winter record of White-throated Sparrow in RI was not an accident. He documented two more winter records and lived long enough to see RI's plundered and deforested landscape recover sufficiently to harbor the lisping flocks of White-throats we now take for granted on the CBCs. On Long Island, Ludlow Griscom scolded over-exuberant birders who tossed off sight records of Ring-billed Gulls in winter and summer, citing a countable number of such specimens as the gold standard of documentation for that species in that context. Chafing at this discipline, Cruickshank and Peterson figured out how to find and identify Ring-billed Gulls better then their predecessors--proving again the eternal pleasure of purposeful birdwatching. Yesterday I saw my first adult Ring-billed Gulls of the season at Robert Moses SP, Suffolk County. I'm not sure of the date for my last spring adult, but I did manage to record that none were present by 17 April: https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S55097294 And I am able to pull up the date of the late-June return of adults in at least one other year: https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S17210602 [note to eBird: please enable sorting of checklists by Julian date!] A little sleuthing subsequently revealed that two of my colleagues beat me to it this year, documenting an adult Ring-bill at Cupsogue two days before my exciting find (though it required some follow-up work to obtain their photos and a definitive age): https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S57623401 Hypothesis: Ring-billed Gulls whose breeding efforts fail after early June abandon the colonies and disperse, some reaching the coast.

[nysbirds-l] Roseate Spoonbill in NY YES. 6pm Aug 2.
Bob Proniewich and I went to Wallkill nwr today in the morning and observed the spoonbill in its usual spot on the west trail in the cut south of the water control and water depth meter. Much as we hoped, when it flew a few times it never ventured anywhere near to the NY border. We left to get food after a while and then went on a fruitless search for the previously reported anhinga. No luck. We returned to wallkill after we concluded the anhinga was not gettable and after the rain stopped we went back to get another look. We were joined by Bill Weissman and we brought him to the area and located the bird for him. By around 6pm we decided to depart, and unbeknownst to us it took off north some time after we did. Bill called me but I was out of cell phone range. When we emerged from tree covered section of the trail near the berm, I spotted a large bird flying south from near oil city road. It was a spoonbill, and my immediate thought was that it was a second bird!! We watched it fly south and we made haste to go back to where we had it before and determine if it was the bird or another. Bill confirmed it had flown north, and while it was not a second bird Bob and I were elated at our good fortune.
