Re: [nysbirds-l] Bunting Thursday --Yes or No -- Thanks

2015-12-03 Thread Ryan Candee
Oftentimes there are better looks (and light) on the other side of the fence 
(on the road/path).   And generally no photo bullies hogging spots.

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope Jones Beach NO

2015-07-25 Thread Ryan Candee
I, together with several other hapless souls encountered along the way, spent 
the first half of the day covering the area around the duck blind with no 
results. Checking the bay by the coast guard station was similarly fruitless.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Seaford Crested Caracara Photos

2015-01-29 Thread Ryan Candee
In Central America, we have seen wild caracaras frequent hotel/lodge grounds 
(one liked to stroll around the swimming pool where we stayed in 2013) and 
other areas of human habitation (as is the case with many scavenger birds).  As 
they are opportunistic birds that aren't particularly shy around people, it 
wouldn't surprise me to see them around residential areas especially when in 
such an unfamiliar range and climate.
