RE: [nysbirds-l] Ruff at Heckscher Park - NO (Suffolk Co.)

While, that is a viable punishment, safety of the bird is paramount and birders 
will have to be birders and do their own due diligence.  In other words, find 
your own dam birds instead of chasing a list.
Just my opinion, YMMV.

Why is the solution always to punish the good birders who only want to enjoy 
looking at these rare birds?
Why not punishing the misbehaving birders/photographers?
If you see someone breaking the law by harassing a migratory bird or stepping 
on restricted area to get closer to it, call the police and photograph them 
being arrested. Then post their photo on social media and let it be a lesson to 
all the misbehaving birders.
This collective punishment doesn’t help any bird or birder.

Probably another successful chase away thanks to the photographers on the scene 
last night who relentlessly chased the bird from one pool to the other despite 
being told that the bird was best observed and photographed from the car.

Unfortunately the solution may be to no longer post birds to the list until 
after they’re gone.

Speaking of Red Knots; Here is an interesting interview w/ Deborah Cramer about 
her studies regarding the link between Red Knots and Horseshoe Crabs.
