[nysbirds-l] Brookln Birds
Various Brooklyn Sites; 17 December Joe Giunta and I (Sy Schiff) did a preliminary survey of Joe's Brooklyn CBC territory (within count period time). Pleasant morning birding but with few land birds, There were a few CORMORANTS scattered about, both GREAT and DOUBLE-CRESTED. Very unusual, we did not see a single Red-breasted merganser anywhere. The most interesting birds were in the water as seen from the parks on Coney Island Creek. From Coney Island Creek Park, 200 BONAPARTE'S GULLS in the were towards the Verrazano Bridge; from Kaiser Park, a RED-NECKED GREBE. Several PURPLE SANDPIPERS were on the rocks along the shore just west of the Verrazano Bridge.
