[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret - Eastport, Suffolk County

2021-11-21 Thread Eileen Schwinn

Reported earlier this AM in the sod field, near the intersection of CR 51 and 
Head of the Neck Rd, by Steve Biasetti, a Cattle Egret was refound at noon.  New
location of the bird is the horse farm, across from the sod field.  It was 
walking among the horse paddocks and the horses, and best viewed from the 
shoulder of Route 51, north side, just east of the turning lane on to Eastport 
Manor Rd.  
Thank you, Steve!

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret, Croton Point Park

2021-11-03 Thread Joseph Wallace
First spotted last evening by a photographer before flying off, the bird
returned today. As of ten minutes ago, it was foraging in long grasses
between the eastern slope of the grassland hill and the phragmites marsh,
between the two roads/paths that bisect that area. Best place to park is in
the RV lot, the furthest lot from the entrance but the nearest to that
area.

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret in Point Lookout

2018-11-10 Thread Steve Walter
I had also heard something (third hand) about a Scissor-tailed in Point
Lookout. I didn't see anything official on this list, but I took a chance
anyway. Like everyone else after the initial sighting, I came up empty. A
small consolation prize was looking up at a high flying egret, going east to
west. My first impression was that of an out of the ordinary shape - chunky.
I managed to get a few pictures of it when it descended somewhat. Inspecting
my pictures upon getting home confirmed what I thought - a Cattle Egret.
Having mentioned that it descended somewhat, it's possible that it came down
in the area. Lido Preserve maybe? Anyone in the area ready to give up on
flycatchers might consider looking around.

 

At least I didn't have to go far to get to Pt. Lookout. I was at Jones Beach
West End, but left at 10:00. But even while at Point Lookout, and probably
just before leaving the area entirely at 11:30, I checked my e-mail for
reports of interest. Nothing at that point. That could be an issue with my
e-mail and carrier, but even checking the web based archives when I got
home, I do not see the initial report of the Gray Kingbird. The first thing
I see is a request for updates (at 11:21).  Where did the initial report -
that I didn't see - go?

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret Relocated Liberty @ Liberty Marsh (NY)

2018-05-01 Thread sophiesaid
The previously reported Cattle Egret reported by Jim Hayes this morning has 
been relocated tonight.
It flew in from the south, headed north over the Oil City Rd Liberty Loop 
platform and landed in the field by the hunting platform.
It then circled back over the platform, and landed (in NY), east of the 
platform.  It was last seen flying east over the treeline.
Other NY portion of refuge notables: Two American Bittern seen in flight (one 
landed east of platform and was in the same scope frame
as the Cattle Egret), and Sora calling.  Also seen: snipe, and both yellowlegs.

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret, Oak Beach, Suffolk, LI

2017-05-02 Thread Shaibal Mitra
A breeding-plumaged Cattle Egret fed along the Ocean Parkway at Oak Beach, 
Suffolk, LI, around noon today.

NB: This is a busy highway where law enforcement is intolerant of people 
parking, walking, or even pulling over. We witnessed several uncomfortable 
episodes last spring when people couldn't resist attempting close, well-lit 
photography of an obliging Upland Sandpiper in this area; such incidents 
certainly don't make life any easier for the local birders who work this area 
regularly and share what they find.

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret, Central Park (many migrants), NYC 4/29 (Saturday)

2017-04-29 Thread Thomas Fiore
Saturday, 29 April, 2017 -

A Western Cattle Egret remains at the small greenspace along the north side of 
West 28th Street, between Eighth & Ninth Avenues, in Manhattan, N.Y. City as of 
about 8:15 a.m. today.

—  —  — 
Central Park (in Manhattan) is again enjoying many expected migrants; there are 
a minimum of 3 singing male Hooded Warblers in the park, one at the far south 
end (Hallett Sanctuary area), with another in the far north end (woods) as 
privately & publicly reported elsewhere, and the one already noted within the 
Strawberry Fields section, by West 72 St. in Central. There may well be a 4th 
male Hooded, as there are sightings in the east-Ramble, somewhat far from 
Strawberry Fields, but it is also typical for many Hooded Warblers first 
arriving in Central to wander a bit, & sometimes quite a bit, as they seek a 
‘patch' they may (or may not) settle into for a longer visit.

A singing Yellow-throated Warbler is among many migrants near Summit Rock, a 
rise (& in fact the highest natural point of land within the park) near West 
83-84 Streets, just inside the park’s western edge; thanks to Brenda Inskeep 
for updates on that;  many other migrant species are being found at this moment 
throughout all of the park; as usual the highest observer effort is in the 
Ramble & vicinity as well as the northern end of the park.  

A long-lingering, now-brightly-plumaged Red-headed Woodpecker remains in the 
area of the park just west of East 68th Street, a short while ago it was 
ranging a bit more, from nearer both E. 69 St. & to nearer E. 67 St. - 
patience, & observing high branches from a good vantage point, may help in 
spotting this bird. It is not that vocal, in recent months.

There are certain to be many more species of some interest to report later on. 

good birding,
Tom Fiore

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret, & Central Park, NYC - migrants are IN, 4/27

2017-04-27 Thread Thomas Fiore
A Western Cattle Egret was still present on the north side of West 28th Street 
this Thuesday morning at 6:45 a.m., seen slightly nearer to the Ninth Ave. end 
of the long linear greenspace there, rather than up in the center or nearer to 
Eighth Ave. (i.e., just a bit more to the west than it’s most often been over 
recent days). This is in Manhattan, N.Y. City, in the Chelsea neighborhood.

- - - - - - - - - - -

There’s been very good migration overnight thru the fog & drizzles, and at 
least some areas in Central Park, in Manhattan are hopping with freshly-arrived 
migrants - 

Already before even 9 a.m. there are at least 20 warbler species in the park, 
and such specials as SUMMER Tanager (in the north woods, a bit south of the 
Blockhouse as of 8:15 a.m. but may be moving a bit);  there are also many 
new-for-year species just-in, & certain to be some additionals, perhaps 
including a few more uncommon / rarer species found.   It remains to be seen if 
all of the park is active with migrants, or possibly the 2 regularly-busy areas 
for fresh migrant arrivals, which are the Ramble (likely to be hopping with 
observers for a good while, too!) and the north end of the park.

It looks likely this is the largest arrival of neotropical migrant passerines 
so far this year, at least in this county.  

Further reports as warranted, and no doubts by day’s end…  and recommended for 
at least NYC birders to, if possible, have a look around any local patch, where 
you work, atttend school, or live, as there might be some bird[s] of note, or 
at the least, a chance of some migrants.  This is also the sort of day (with 
moderate to locally-thick fog) when the day could get more “birdy” as it rolls 
on, or, (perhaps) see a greater dispersal, & thus a bit less of any hot-spot 
sort of activity concentrated, as fog lifts or clears out.

good -and ethical- birding,

Tom Fiore

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret, NYC, & fresh migrants, Central Park, 4/24

2017-04-24 Thread Thomas Fiore
Monday, 24 April, 2017 
Manhattan, N.Y. City 

A Western Cattle Egret is continuing on at the north side of West 28th St., 
between Eighth & Ninth Avenues, seen into this Mon. evening there.  It’s been 
possible, for those that aspire to such, to include 3 egret species on a day & 
county list with the above, and from Central Park’s north end ‘fly-way’, 
sighting a Snowy as well as the far-more-frequent Great Egret, which is regular 
within the park as well. Snowy Egret can be seen on most days, with a bit of 
effort or by chance, mainly from points north of 100th St. & these egrets 
moving overhead, east-west & vice-versa. (this may also be observed from 
outside the park in a sort of east-west-east ‘corridor’ between very roughly 
100th & 125th Streets in Manhattan, which clearly parallels an ancient route 
these waterbirds have known & are still able to utilize.) They are moving 
between points in the upper East River / westernmost LI Sound, & the New Jersey 
meadowlands region.  In past years, the Snowy was a bit more of an occasional 
to near-regular drop-in visitor at the north end of Central Park; this seems to 
be less-regular in recent years. It’s possible they may still be seen doing so 
around dawn or dusk hours, however.

- -
On what some may have thought a ‘slow’ birding day, there were at least a few 
first-of-year sightings in various parts of Central Park, including the Ramble 
area, the north end, & elsewhere around the park as found by some careful 
observers. The lingering Wild Turkey was seen again today near the south edges 
of the park, and close to the Seventh Ave. park entrance there.

At least 7 species of warbler were present & these included a first-of-spring 
(in Central) Ovenbird, as well as Yellow Warbler, N. Waterthrush, 
Black-and-white Warbler, modest numbers of Palm, many (35+, park-wide) Myrtle 
(a.k.a. Yellow-rumped), and Pine (one in north end) Warbler[s].  Also found in 
at least several locations were Warbling Vireo, another first-of-spring migrant 
here in Central, although that & Ovenbird have been found elsewhere, in N.Y.C., 
& in points north by now.  A singing Rose-breasted Grosbeak was present late in 
the day in the Hallett Sanctuary at the south end of the park.Although 
(native) sparrow numbers were fewer than in recent days, there were still 
hundreds )park-wide) of White-throated, & numbers of Chipping, as well as some 
Field, Swamp, Song, & Savannah Sparrow[s] (latter near compost area) today.  
Some other migrants have been at least mentioned word-of-mouth, that might be 
first-of-spring for Central...

A Red-headed Woodpecker in bright plumage continues its lengthy stay, still in 
the area of the park just west of East 68th Street. It can require some 
patience to spot this bird, which has often been quite high in upper branches.

A Red-necked Grebe was still present on the reservoir, increasingly bright in 
plumage & quite late now, as we come into the last week of April. A very large 
group of observers, including students from the South Bronx, watched the grebe 
this mid-day.  Much later on, another peaceful, quiet & inherehently-ethical 
birding group was seen, moving towards the Ramble, led by Gabriel Willow, among 
the many exemplary leaders who give walks for the NYC Audubon, or NYCAS. 

Thanks to Ardith Bondi for the news on a rehabbed-&-released Clapper Rail, at 
the Loch in the n. end of Central Park. Thanks also to (among others), Erika 
Piik, Tony Gaszo, and Jordan Spindel, for individually noting some of the 
migrants in the park later on in the day.  My own visits there included early 
morning, mid-day and near & thru end-of-day, in all parts of the park.

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret, & Central Park, NYC 4/22-23 + extralim. Fieldfare in ME.

2017-04-23 Thread Thomas Fiore
Sunday, 23 April, 2017

A Fieldfare has been lingering at the same area in the state of Maine, U.S.A. - 
quite a rare visitor to N. America; details & photos are in eBird and on that 
state’s list & other bird-forums.


N.Y. City 

A Western Cattle Egret continues its now-lengthy stay on the north side of West 
28th St., between Eighth & Ninth Avenues, in Manhattan’s (N.Y. City) Chelsea 
neighborhood into Sunday, April 23rd. 

- - - - - - -
Central Park (Manhattan) has had visiting Wild Turkey previously, but the 
latest sighting[s] received a bit more attention. The species is a long-time 
resident in several locations less than 10 miles from Manhattan, and not too 
many years ago, was also resident (for some years) on Manhattan, esp. at 
locations at opposite ends, at Battery Park (south end of the island), and at 
Inwood Hill Park (north end of the island).  Of those that have wandered about 
elsewhere in Manhattan, it’s often been suggested that those individuals may 
have used the Hudson river corridor, on the island’s west edge, to move south, 
&/or north, but this may have been only rarely observed.  One was present in 
Central Park from at least Thursday 4/20, as found & reported then by Carolyn 
Smith in the park’s north end, & (presumed the same single individual) that 
bird has been working zig-zaggingly but steadily south, to the southern end of 
the park by Sunday morning. I was able to photograph the turkey at close range 
this Sun. morning & with no disturbance (one man sleeping on sunny lawn 10 
yards away), thousands of tourists passing, seeming unaware of the very large 
bird just off several heavily-used paths & the park drive near its southwestern 
extremity.  During the time I was observing & photo’ing, no one else was 
watching, and the turkey was feeding undisturbed by any activities, but that 
may have been just a short respite from a variety of “risks” a ground-feeding 
bird is going to encounter in a park such as this; on the other hand, as stated 
above, this species has been a city-resident, including within Battery Park, 
which sees millions of people per year (if not per month) passing thru.

A Red-necked Grebe at the C.P. reservoir has also lingered; there is no way to 
accurately determine that this is the bird that was rehabbed & then released 
there, last winter. However, as the grebe lingers on & on, it seems plausible 
that it may not have the strength, or ability, to fly properly. If that’s so, 
hopefully it will be able to, with time. Otherwise, sightings of this bird 
might go on into & thru the summer.

The Red-headed Woodpecker in bright plumage has continued at its usual area 
just west of East 68th St. in the park, often may be high in trees & sometimes 
requires a bit of patience to see.  

On Saturday 4/22, at Central Park, Wood Thrush was newly-noted by multiple 
observers, although a few birders had tentatively (word-of-mouth) reported this 
species as early as 4/20; in any case, the species was more-widely seen in 
multiple NYC parks, in at least several boroughs (counties) of the city, as of 
Saturday. It had also been found in a few other counties, farther north.

Some of the same warblers & other typical mid-April migrants that have been in 
Central for days are still in some of the same areas as previously.

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret, Manhattan NYC 4/21

2017-04-21 Thread Thomas Fiore
A Western Cattle Egret continues on this Friday, April 21 in Manhattan (N.Y. 
City) at the n. side of W. 28th St., between Eighth & Ninth Ave’s.; around 
mid-day today the egret was not looking so well and was somewhat hunkered-in at 
an edging to freshly-plowed dirt, perhaps sheltering from a chill wind.

Brief stops at several midtown parks did not show a great many or variety of 
migrants, but there were a few. Some, & possibly many, of Thursday’s migrants 
at Central Park seem to have moved on again.  A Red-necked Grebe was still 
present on the Central Park reservoir today.

the early morning at least, the Egret was a bit closer to Eigth Ave. - it was

I also visited some smaller parks in the lower-mid Manhattan area, & most 
seemed to hold very scant migrant or late-lingering wintered-over birds.  The 
Hudson river along lower Manhattan also appeared relatively quiet and the 
greenspaces alongside somewhat the same, with the exception of lingering 
Atlantic Brant in some areas, which are not unexpected into or even thru April. 
 


Thanks to Ardith Bondi for her note on the Central Park reservoir (Manhattan) 
Red-necked Grebe which she photographed Thursday; this bird was also reported 
by a few others, in various media.  Should that grebe linger on into next week, 
it will certainly seem very likely that it is the same which was rehabilitated 
in Manhattan & subsequently released to the CP reservoir. It is mobile within 
the reservoir & it seems to be feeding well.

Peaceful birding,

feeding reasonably, as it has been for the days of observations.  

I also visited some smaller parks in the lower-mid Manhattan area, & most 
seemed to hold very scant migrant or late-lingering wintered-over birds.  The 
Hudson river along lower Manhattan also appeared relatively quiet and the 
greenspaces alongside somewhat the same, with the exception of lingering 
Atlantic Brant in some areas, which are not unexpected into or even thru April. 
 


Thanks to Ardith Bondi for her note on the Central Park reservoir (Manhattan) 
Red-necked Grebe which she photographed Thursday; this bird was also reported 
by a few others, in various media.  Should that grebe linger on into next week, 
it will certainly seem very likely that it is the same which was rehabilitated 
in Manhattan & subsequently released to the CP reservoir. It is mobile within 
the reservoir & it seems to be feeding well.

Peaceful birding,

Tom Fiore

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret and Eastern Bluebirds at Pelham Bay Park in Bronx County, NY

2016-11-12 Thread Jared Cole
Matthieu Benoit and I (Jared Cole) birded Pelham Bay Park in The Bronx, NY,
on 11/11/2016 from sunrise (about 6:40am) to sunset (about 4:40pm).

We started at Twin Islands, eventually concluding in the Southern Zone of
the park. We did not observe any morning flight. We did have a good
diversity (in low numbers) of several migratory/resident raptors, including
Bald Eagles, Northern Harrier, Cooper's Hawk, Sharp-shinned Hawk,
Red-tailed Hawk, and Peregrine Falcon. We had 8 Emberizidae sparrows
including Eastern Towhee, American Tree Sparrow, Fox Sparrow, Swamp
Sparrow, Savannah Sparrow, Song Sparrow, White-throated Sparrow, and
Dark-eyed Junco.

Two species that stood out were Eastern Bluebirds and Cattle Egret, both
observed by the landfill. We spent just under an hour (3:20-4:10pm) along
the edge of the landfill in the southern zone of the park. We had 6 Eastern
Bluebirds fly up onto the barbwire fence and then over into the landfill
area. Just after passing the landfill, we set up along the fence and had a
Cattle Egret fly by. The Cattle Egret flew southeast from the edge of the
landfill, but we lost it as it flew over the docks that stick into
Eastchester Bay. We snapped photos of both species and they are on the
eBird list: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S32507644.

I will be uploading the other lists to eBird later but wanted to get this
one out in case birders wanted to have a look in The Bronx tomorrow.

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret @ Fort Tidlen Queens Co...

2016-10-25 Thread Andrew Baksh
While trying to get in on a pretty much non existent migration flight at Fort 
Tilden, I stumbled upon a Cattle Egret loafing on the soccer/rugby fields. This 
one showed even less breeding plumes on its head than Rob Jett's Floyd Bennett 
Field bird and looked more like John Young's bird from Van Cortlandt Park.

Today's CAEG (Cattle Egret) makes it 3 seen for the month of October and 4 in 
total for the year for me, having seen one on the East Pond earlier in the 
year. With Peter Dorosh's report of another CAEG documented by Gus Keri at Bush 
Terminal Pier Park in Brooklyn. We could have at the moment 3-4 CAEG in play 
(not sure if the Bronx bird is still being seen). I wonder how many more we are 
missing that are out there in our area.

Cheers,

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret - Hook Pond, East Hampton (Suffolk)

2014-11-09 Thread Derek Rogers
There's a Cattle Egret feeding along the south side of Hook Pond within the 
unmaintained area adjacent to the golf course. Nearest landmark is the yellow 
flag that indicates "hole 4." A scope is needed as I am viewing from the far 
southeast section off of Terbell Lane (area where the Tundra Swans are normally 
seen).

Best,

RE: [nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret- Mecox Rd - yes

2013-06-05 Thread Shaibal Mitra
In addition to their obvious relevance for year-listers, I suspect the Cattle 
Egrets in Brooklyn and at Mecox are nudging birders' memories of other, similar 
patterns of occurrence. These birds' simultaneous appearance demonstrates again 
the tendency of unusual birds to occur in bunches--and very often with no 
obvious weather mechanism "driving" them from where they were to where they are 
now.

When Rob Jett reported a Cattle Egret in Brooklyn in November 2009--

http://citybirder.blogspot.com/2009/11/november-madness.html

--I suggested that the followup oughtn't merely be a re-check of Floyd Bennett 
Field, but rather an immediate search of the fields at Mecox, 90 miles to the 
east. My reasoning was that Cattle Egrets had co-occurred in 2008 on Staten 
Island and at Mecox, and that a Cattle Egret at Mecox the year before that had, 
indirectly, helped to prompt one of the most frenzied bouts of rarity-finding 
that anyone could remember--

http://www.nybirds.org/Publications/KB58no1_HowWeAllGoBirding.pdf

The upshot in November 2009 was that Pat Lindsay went ahead and checked Mecox 
the day after Rob's Brooklyn bird, showing off good measures of daring and 
style in her chosen mode of bird-chasing. She duly discovered a Cattle Egret 
precisely where she expected to find it.

I relocated the earlier reported Cattle Egret at Marine Park at around 4:40pm. 
It was in a stretch of marsh grass on the East side of Gerritsen Creek adjacent 
to the golf course. JUst follow the gravel path until you come to a large steel 
container and follow the sand path behind it. It was still present at little 
past 5pm.

Good birding,

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret - Riverhead

Relocated the Cattle Egret, previously reported by Eileen Schwinn, at
around 4:30pm today.  The bird was a little to the East of the original
location, feeding in a field with a number of plastic greenhouses (which
probably concealed it from other searchers during its absence).

Thanks to Eileen for the posting - was able to enjoy 'warbler-fest' in
Central Park, then rush out to Riverhead for Year Bird #10 for the day.

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret at Stillwell Woods Preserve

2011-11-15 Thread Stella Miller
A mountain bike rider who has been assisting in efforts to restore the meadows 
of Stillwell Woods Preserve in Syosset
 alerted me to a cattle egret in the back field.  It has apparently been 
there since Saturday and is still present today.

The preserve is on South Woods Road. When you arrive, drive all the way down to 
the far end, near the gate across the trail to park.  Take the wide trail into 
the preserve, looking for the Do Not Mow signs on your left.  The egret is in 
that field.

2010-10-30 Thread Vinny Pellegrino
A few blocks away from my house there is a Cattle Egret feeding in an open 
field right off of Elwood Road in East Northport.  I passed it at 12:20pm and 
walked In the door to type this message at 12:32pm.  Also in the field was a 
small flock of Canada Geese.  The field is located immediately south of Elwood 
High School directly off of Elwood Road.

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret at Floyd Bennett Field

2010-10-10 Thread Heydi Lopes
There was a Cattle Egret at Floyd Bennett Field this morning.  I saw
if fly in and land in the Community Gardens; it soon flew off and was
then moving around to several of the fields, feeding. Left Floyd
Bennett at around 10:30am and the bird was still present.

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret continues, Robt Moses SP Suffolk County

2010-10-02 Thread David Klauber

The Cattle Egret found by Bobby Rosetti yesterday afternoon was present again 
along the northern edge of the Robert Moses field 5 parking lot, between the 
toll booths and the exit. It was not present for the first few hours this 
morning, then was found around 9 AM. While walking along the boardwalk towards 
the lighthouse, it flew east, then returned 20 minutes later and was still by 
the parking lot when we left, probably about 10:30.
There were many birds flying west, but most kept moving through

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret and More Lesser BB Gulls, Robert Moses SP, Suffolk County

2010-10-01 Thread Shaibal Mitra
The Cattle Egret found by Bobby Rossetti and reported by Dave Klauber was still 
present near the northeast corner of Field 5 at 5:30 this evening.

Present then at Field 2 were 6 LBBGs in a discrete flock: 2 near adults, a 3rd 
Winter, and 3 juvs.

At lunchtime, Patricia found a second near adult LBBG at Heckscher (just one of 
that appearance was present there is morning), bringing our tally today to 11 
LBBGs, including 6 juvs--and we covered just three sites in southwestern 
Suffolk (Heckscher, Captree, and RMSP).

As noted by Angus, the gulls appeared to be arriving and departing in a dynamic 
fashion, and our impression (pending photo analysis) was that there was no 
obvious overlap among the 5+ individuals observed yesterday at RMSP and the 6+ 
observed there today.

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret @ Sunken Meadow State Park

2009-12-02 Thread Jerry Lazarczyk
In the fading light today, I found a Cattle Egret in the creek standing in a 
shallow spot in the midst of about 20-30 Canada Geese et al. 
It was just west of the pedestrian bridge which is well east of the auto bridge 
over the creek. After going over the auto bridge take your (immediate)
first right and go to the second parking lot and park in the near corner, close 
as you can to the creek. The pedetrian bridge is kitty-corner  
across the road. A better view is gotten by NOT crossing ther bridge and 
following the creek about 50 yards back towards the auto bridge.

NO Pink-footed Goose. A younger couple with Missouri plates had been looking 
and did not find the goose either. They said there were 
kids all over the high school fields and no geese.

Got the Queens county Ash-throated Flycatcther about 3pm after enduring a 5 
minute wait. It was thanks to Avi and Barbara that pointed out where they had 
seen 
it a few minutes before (near the train station, just over the fence). Once we 
saw it,  it then fly caught all over and eventually providing 
us with great views. It had the elevated crown and white belly. It eventually 
flew off towards the "pink" building.

[nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret @ Mecox

2009-12-02 Thread Hugh McGuinness

Dear NY Birders,

The CATTLE EGRET continues at the Mecox Dairy in Bridgehampton. I saw  
the bird today at about 2:30pm along Mecox Road in the southern  
pasture east of the barns, which are just east of Horsemill Lane.  
There were several hundred Ring-billed Gulls in the big fields just a  
bit farther east, but I couldn't find anything else among them.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Cattle Egret at Floyd Bennett

2009-11-20 Thread Shaibal Mitra
Hi Rob and all,

That's a really neat find, and in my mind, it's a good indication that
other oddities are likely lurking in the weeds around here.

As Cattle Egrets have vanished as breeding birds in NYS and New England,
November has become a relatively good time for seeing them here. The species has
lingered into mid December at least twice on eastern LI, including one at
Deep Hollow on the Montauk CBC, on 21 Dec 1996.

When two Cattle Egrets popped up near Mecox Bay on 17 November 2007, I
remember dashing off a note to Hugh McGuinness, volunteering a cockamamie 
theory of
correlated vagrancy of November Grasshopper Sparrows with Cattle Egrets
(based on a personal sample size of maybe two!). Although the
Grassgroper Hypothesis remains in limbo, chasing down those Cattle Egrets
the next day and later certainly revealed how rich and unexpected November
birding can be ("Patagonia Picnic in Montauk" Kingbird 58: 2-12).

Last year, there was a Cattle Egret at Fresh Kills, Staten Island in November, 
and one appeared at Mecox again, persisting into December, up to the eve of the 
Sagaponack CBC.

This afternoon at around 12:45pm, Heydi Lopes and I found a Cattle Egret
at Floyd Bennett Field. It was feeding fairly close to the road within
Field "B". It didn't seem too concerned about cars driving by, but did
move a short distance when a loud motorcycle blasted down the road. Here's
a link to a map with a placemark noting the location:

While this seems like a very late date for Cattle Egret it is actually a
few weeks shy of the 12 December extreme coastal date noted in "Bull's
Birds".

Good birding,
