Re: [nysbirds-l] Mine Road closed - Orange County

2015-05-09 Thread Michael Lester
Hi All,



I was actually able to bird Mine Rd. from the north today.  While there is
a sign at the beginning of the road that said it was closed due to
training, I ran into someone (presumably from the area) who told me that as
long as the gates are open, it’s fine to go down. However, he added that
the road is usually closed during the week.  I was able to drive down for
about 3 miles before I hit a closed gate.  Military police did pass me a
couple times but never stopped to tell me that I shouldn’t be there.

 It's still closed to all traffic, including foot traffic. The official
 reason is unexploded ordinance. Just thought some people would be

Re: [nysbirds-l] Mississippi Kite in SI

2013-06-12 Thread Michael Lester
Hi All,

I did not see any reports yet today so I thought I would just mention that
the Mississippi Kite continued near the pond at Cemetery of the
Resurrection around 230pm.  An adult Bald Eagle also did a quick flyby, as
well as a distant Black Vulture.
