Re: [nysbirds-l] Black-bellied Whistling Ducks - Cow Meadow - Yes
The Whistling Ducks were still present when I arrived at 8:20 tonight; however, shortly thereafter, they picked up and flew low over the marinas and residential area immediately to the west. For those looking to chase the birds early tomorrow, I think it is still worth visiting Cow Meadow. After the ducks initially flew off the west, they returned on two separate occasions over the next several minutes (flying in from the west, circling low over the pond and adjacent field, and then returning back west). Given this behavior, I think it is reasonable to think that they might have subsequently returned in the twilight hours to the Cow Meadow ponds.
