[nysbirds-l] Passerina Bunting sp. Ulster County

2022-01-11 Thread Menachem Goldstein
Just came across this intriguing eBird report of a "Indigo Bunting" with photos 
from Robert Howard taken today in Ulster County, linked below.  A few of my 
initial observations but looking forward to hearing from those with more 
experience separating between these taxa.  The female passerina bunting in 
question, has underparts which appear relatively unstreaked and noticeable 
wingbars made me initially excited at the possibility of this being a Lazuli 
Bunting.  However, the throat does appear to be slightly paler and contrasting, 
which would lean more toward an Indigo Bunting.  Head color is difficult to 
judge but at least appears concolorous with the flanks.  Even if "just" an 
out-of-season Indigo Bunting is the consensus ID, still a noteworthy bird for 
the region.  Hopefully others can weigh in, and/or the bird can be relocated in 
the coming days.

Cheers,

Re: [nysbirds-l] Common Greenshank Info

2019-05-06 Thread Menachem Goldstein
Continues same area this morning

Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android 
 
  On Sun, May 5, 2019 at 9:13 PM, Shaibal Mitra 
wrote:   The Common Greenshank continued at Timber Point when I left at 18:30, 
feeding productively on large worms and other invertebrates on the flooded golf 
course. Birders arriving at the golf course tomorrow morning should park at the 
main parking lot. The favored puddles are immediately east of the parking lot, 
south of a water hazard,  and northeast of the main building (the same puddles 
favored by last spring's Wood Sandpiper). They can be viewed from the edge of 
the main entrance road, between the parking lot and the building.

Tomorrow the weather will be better and golfers will be out. I think the bird 
is likely to be present in the early morning, but I fear that it will 
inevitably fly out at some point, and with golfers active on the course, it 
might not return. Thus, it might be prudent for those serious about seeing it 
to commit to an early arrival, rather than awaiting news of its continuing 
presence before heading over.

I've posted some photos here:

wrote:   The Common Greenshank continued at Timber Point when I left at 18:30, 
feeding productively on large worms and other invertebrates on the flooded golf 
course. Birders arriving at the golf course tomorrow morning should park at the 
main parking lot. The favored puddles are immediately east of the parking lot, 
south of a water hazard,  and northeast of the main building (the same puddles 
favored by last spring's Wood Sandpiper). They can be viewed from the edge of 
the main entrance road, between the parking lot and the building.

Tomorrow the weather will be better and golfers will be out. I think the bird 
is likely to be present in the early morning, but I fear that it will 
inevitably fly out at some point, and with golfers active on the course, it 
might not return. Thus, it might be prudent for those serious about seeing it 
to commit to an early arrival, rather than awaiting news of its continuing 
presence before heading over.

I've posted some photos here:

[nysbirds-l] King Eider at Caumsett SP (YES)

2016-07-13 Thread Menachem Goldstein
I just received an update and photos from Bobby Rossetti that indeed a young 
male King Eider was seen along Long Island Sound at Caumsett State Park between 
thefisherman’s parking lot and the area just past the pond to the east at low 
tide earlier today.   It is evidently working its way up and down the 
shoreline.  Photos from Bobby are posted to my flickr account with his 
permission https://www.flickr.com/gp/80885180@N07/2qXH3D.  
Please note I refrained from reposting original WhatBird King Eider photo which 
Ethan Maitra referenced due to possible copyright issues.  A) I do not know the 
usability status of images submitted to WhatBird b) I do not even know who the 
original finder of the eider is and C) I did not know how to contact them in 
order to get proper permission.  It was and likely still is available through 
the WhatBird site which can be viewed by making a "dummy account".
Thank you Shai and Matthew for providing the updates on over-summering and 
breeding ducks on Long Island and for Bobby for confirming the bird's presence.
Good Birding,

Re: [nysbirds-l] adult Baird's continues Jones Beach Nassau County

2014-07-27 Thread Menachem Goldstein
Adult Baird's Sandpiper continues as previously reported in the easternmost 
pond.  At first I re-found it along the phragmites line at the far southwestern 
edge of the dried pond.  It then flew into the grassy area connecting the 
aforementioned easternmost pond with the next pond to the west.  Seen well 
between 2:00-3:30.  When I left, it had returned to where I had originally 
found it.

Good Birding,
Menachem

The adult Baird's Sandpiper found by the Feustels continues in the easternmost

and an excellent find, as this plumage is rarely seen here (never before by 
me). At the Coast Guard Station sandbar was a group of shorebirds highlighted 
by a couple of RedKnots, at least 1 in breeding plumage, and 1 Western Willet. 
In the WE2 parking lot on the southeastern side there were 14 Lesser 
Black-backed Gulls in a variety of plumages between 1st and 3rd summer. This 
number had dropped to 4 when we left around 9:30

[nysbirds-l] Montauk Alcids

2013-12-26 Thread Menachem Goldstein
Great birding this morning out at Montauk Point, with almost continuous views 
of Razorbills, 75 total with 13 Dovekies sprinkled in.  A couple of Wyoming 
birders mentioned seeing a female Harlequin Duck west of the point but I 
couldn't relocate it.  Prior to getting to Montauk, a quick stop at Shinnecock 
Inlet yielded both Iceland and Glaucous Gulls.  

Good Birding and Happy Holidays!

[nysbirds-l] 2 Baird's Sandpipers @ Sagaponack Pond

2013-09-13 Thread Menachem Goldstein
Thanks to Karen Rubinstein's directions and a weekend home from school, I 
finally managed to connect with a Baird's Sandpiper after many many tries.  
Then, not only was there one Baird's, but both birds continue from yesterday on 
the remaining flats just northwest of the parking lot.  There is very little 
flats remaining so the birds may not remain for much longer.  Other birds of 
note were 2 Pectoral Sandpipers in the vicinity of the aforementioned Baird's 
and 72 American Golden Plovers seen circling the sod field on Osborne Ave in 
Riverhead.  They landed west of the sod field behind the apple orchard.  No 
Buff-breasted Sandpipers seen on Osborne Ave nor on the Head of the Neck Rd sod 
field.  
 
Good Birding,

[nysbirds-l] Red-necked Stint- Cupsogue

2013-07-02 Thread Menachem Goldstein
I just wanted to add some details to the previous postings about the Stint.  
Today, when I first saw the bird, it was feeding among the Semipalmated 
Sandpipers west of the main tern loafing flats, between the two patches of 
marsh grasses at 10:20.  As soon as the crowd had gathered it flew onto the 
main tern flats where it remained for a few minutes.  Finally it flew in the 
direction of the parking lot where it was lost and never re-found despite many 
hours of continued searching by many.  

I hope the bird sticks around for more to see.  

Good Birding,

Menachem

[nysbirds-l] Red-headed Woodpecker- Hempstead Lake State Park

Thanks to hearing a report from Ed while birding at Jones Beach, I quickly made 
my way over to Hempstead Lake State Park where I was treated to a nice male 
Red-headed Woodpecker.  It was seen just south of the tennis courts 
predominately on low tree trunks in the yard of the lone house and also just on 
the other side of the yard's fence.

were no Scaup at all in the harbor.
