[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope, Manhattan

[Ryan Zucker]

Haven’t seen this posted here, but a Red Phalarope was found this morning by 
Loyan Beausoleil at Stuyvesant Cove, at 20th St on the East River. The bird has 
continued and has been very cooperative, often feeding within a few feet of 
onlookers. 

Good birding!

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope, & Central Park, NYC 4/25-26

[Thomas Fiore]

A Red Phalarope was discovered & “tweeted” in a mid-day report today, Wednesday 
4/26, by David Barrett of Manhattan, at the northeastern edge of Randall’s 
Island, in New York County, & in the northeast part of the East River estuary 
off the eastern side of Manhattan island.  I tried for this bird many hours 
after the discovery, but was not successful, and D.B. had already made a note 
that the phalarope was not seen again after the initial sighting & 
identification.  It’s quite the rare sighting rather generally from land, being 
such a pelagic creature in winter & much of migration, but there are some solid 
records from Manhattan, at least one photo’d. in fall 2015, & a late-summer 
occurrence in Central Park, that being at The Lake just after a strong t-storm. 
 (The observer for the latter, Norma Collin of Manhattan, provided an 
excruciatingly-detailed description, which matched in every way a sighting of a 
fading-plumaged female Red Phalarope.  That bird was not seen even 1 hour 
later, as often can be with such weather-tossed wader-waifs.)  I was 
concentrating on potential phalarope sightings when I visited Randall’s Island 
from about 5:45 - 6:45 pm, checking shore, creek, & marsh areas; on my way back 
to Manhattan island (via the foot-bridge at East 102 St.) I noticed a Horned 
Grebe on the Randall’s Island side of the river channel.

-  -  -  -  -  -  -
Central Park, Manhattan, N.Y. City

Wednesday, 4/26 - Paths near & along the Gill (a small stream) in the center of 
the Ramble are re-opened to the public, or so it seemed as of late in the day 
today; we shall all hope it is so. 

A Barred Owl was found in the Ramble, an uncommon species for Manhattan, 
although not without precedent, including within Central Park; it’s also likely 
the species has occurred at least slightly more often than is realized, as with 
some other regionally-resident owl species.  The bird was documented with 
photographs in a respectful way, at a high roost, in a deciduous tree.

Tuesday’s small batch of newer migrants seemed a bit reduced, yet there were 
some species found Wed. that either had not been ‘uncovered’ as of Tues. or 
perhaps did some skipping thru the rains & fog Tues. night, with at least 3 
Indigo Buntings turning up (all adult males in rather bright color) in Central, 
2 in one place & 1 along the s. edge of Sheep Meadow.  Up at the north end of 
the park, although migrants certainly seemed “thin”, there was an adult 
White-crowned Sparrow mixed with a few White-throated, on the Great Hill’s 
upper part.  The swallow numbers of Tues. at the reservoir seemed much reduced, 
at least by mid-morning there, although the same 3 spp. were present as had 
been Tues.  -

On the reservoir, a Red-necked Grebe is continuing & today, a very few N. 
Shovelers, Ruddy Ducks, & modest no’s. of Buffleheads were also seen. Gulls of 
3 species are still regular, and there have been ongoing but occasional fly-bys 
or drop-ins by Laughing Gull. (the 3 regulars in gulls here are of course, 
Ring-billed - now in lowered no’s., American Herring, and Great Black-backed).

-   -   -   -
Tuesday, 4/25 -

There was a minimal, but modestly-diverse, fresh arrival of some migrants 
overnight from Monday-Tuesday morning. In numbers, the most evident in one 
location within the park were of swallows, with conservatively 30+ at the 
reservoir, and consisting primarily of Tree Swallow. That these appeared in 
numbers on a damp day with E & NE winds is typical here in mid-spring; often 
the best weather for swallows, at Central Park is that with a NE or E. wind 
component, & sometimes rain or fog in combination with such a wind.

Wild Turkey (female continuing at the south end of park, not that far from 
Seventh Ave.)

Chimney Swift (2 or 3)

Barn (5-6), N. Rough-winged (4+) & Tree (20+) Swallows (over reservoir’s NE 
sector, primarily)

White-eyed Vireo, Warbling Vireo, Blue-headed Vireo were all seen, the 
White-eyed just (east) across the West (park) Drive from Summit Rock.  

Warblers were very “thin” and not too easily discerned, at least by mid-morning 
& generally later on. There seemed to be a slight “concentration” (if it can be 
called that), on the park’s western side, esp. in the latitude of the 70’s to 
low 90’s streets (being adjacent to the park, that is).  Of these species, the 
only few that seemed to be at all cooperative, for some & at certain times 
later in the day, were Blue-winged Warbler & of course Ovenbird.  A Worm-eating 
Warbler was at the area just south of the park entrance at W. 77th St., which 
is not birded much, despite being very close to very-much-birded areas such as 
Strawberry Fields & some other locations.  (This area was checked today, Wed. 
but no warblers were seen; an Orange-crowned Warbler was above the south side 
of the W. 79th St. Transverse, in another small area that is not so much 
looked-at despite its proximity to well-birded areas, such as Shakespeare 
Garden & Belvedere

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope still present this morning as of about 10 am

[Ardith Bondi]

One more very interesting finding about the Eastern Hog-nosed snake - 
their specialty food is TOADS! The snakes, apparently, are adapted to be 
immune to the toxin in the toad's skin. In contrast, they are rarely 
kept as pets because they don't like feeder mice (unless the mice are 
first scented with amphibians).


They strike but do not bite, and instead flip over and play dead when 
threatened.

I did not see any Fowler's toads today, but saw several last week.

The rangers also told me that they are trying to keep track of the
population numbers for the Hog-nosed snake, so if you see one, you might
let them know where and when. It is a very pretty snake.

They said the only other snake normally found out there is a garter snake.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope still present this morning as of about 10 am

[Ardith Bondi]

One more very interesting finding about the Eastern Hog-nosed snake - 
their specialty food is TOADS! The snakes, apparently, are adapted to be 
immune to the toxin in the toad's skin. In contrast, they are rarely 
kept as pets because they don't like feeder mice (unless the mice are 
first scented with amphibians).


They strike but do not bite, and instead flip over and play dead when 
threatened.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope still present this morning as of about 10 am

[John Laver]

I (John Laver), Nancy O'Keefe & Barbara Saunders observed a dozen or so
Fowlers Toads at various points around the TRNC at Jones Beach West End
last weekend.

I thought I saw the rear end of a fox fleeing from my approach, as I hiked
out to observe the Red Phalarope last Sunday - but I can't confirm it.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope still present this morning as of about 10 am

[steve rosenthal]

I haven't checked this year, but usually there are lots of juvenile
Fowler's toads  in the sandy areas near the fishermen's parking area
past the Coast Guard station. Never have figured out where the
freshwater was over there.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope still present this morning as of about 10 am

[John Laver]

I (John Laver), Nancy O'Keefe  Barbara Saunders observed a dozen or so
Fowlers Toads at various points around the TRNC at Jones Beach West End
last weekend.

I thought I saw the rear end of a fox fleeing from my approach, as I hiked
out to observe the Red Phalarope last Sunday - but I can't confirm it.

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope

[Carney, Martin]

The Red Phalarope was not in the pond in front of the blind (the only one I
checked) at 5:30 pm today.  There were only about 10 sandpipers and 1
Killdeer in the whole area...Martin Carney

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope still present this morning as of about 10 am

[Ardith Bondi]

I did not see any Fowler's toads today, but saw several last week.

The rangers also told me that they are trying to keep track of the 
population numbers for the Hog-nosed snake, so if you see one, you might 
let them know where and when. It is a very pretty snake.


They said the only other snake normally found out there is a garter snake.

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope WE2 Ponds JBSP Update

[Philip Ribolow]

Classification: External Communication

6:20 PM. Still visible in pond, SW of duck blind. All alone in the open on a 
strip of dirt.
On my way to Neil Young. Great night all around.

Subject: Re: [ebirdsnyc] Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope WE2 Ponds JBSP Update

A few people e-mailed me for further details on the whereabouts of this bird so 
I figured I would send a broadcast message.

When I left, about 30 minutes ago, the Red Phalarope was still showing well. It 
sporadically takes flight in response to a number of variables including low 
flying aircraft. As seen earlier, when it disappeared for over 20 minutes it 
returned eventually to the ponds, just be patient and check all three ponds. 
Please do not attempt to go down into the ponds as it may spook everything and 
it may very well not return.

For logistics, park in the Teddy Roosevelt Nature Center parking lot and head 
west through the dunes towards what appears to be an old blind--look for people 
with scopes etc. Additionally, Least Sandpipers, White-rumped Sandpiper, 
Short-billed Dowitchers, Semipalmated Sandpipers, Killdeers, Semipalmated 
Plovers, Eastern Willet along with both Lesser and Greater Yellowlegs are in 
the area.

Happy Phalarope Friday!

The Red Phalarope that was found this morning by Bob Anderson, took flight from 
one of the ponds near the Teddy Roosevelt center heading east--I lost it as it 
banked towards the ocean.

The bird was showing well but kept getting spooked by low flying aircraft.  It 
kept moving back and forth between the two ponds. However, since this last 
flight about 25 minutes ago it has been a no show.

I don't know if the swale has any water but I'll check that area and post an 
update either way.

Jones Beach Phalarope location clarification Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope, JBWE, YES

[David Jordet]

Hello,
Just to clarify the phalarope is located at Jones Beach West End (JBWE -- 
Nassau County) NOT Jamaica Bay wildlife refuge (JBWR Queens County). 
These near identical acronyms looked like they might pose a problem for some. 
Hope this helps avoid navigation errors and wasted days-offs in search of this 
beautiful bird!

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope, JBWE, YES

[Queensgirl]

Still feeding at 2nd pond when I arrived at 11:15am, observed with Brooklyn 
birders Cathy and Karen. Flew to 1st pond (nearest to Nature Center) around 
noon, where it sat at the far end and, after 30 minutes, flew left, possibly 
into the phragmites area. Birders are at the location now, waiting for the 
phalarope to re-appear.

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope Continues

[Peter Reisfeld]

After hanging around for 2 hours and missing the bird yesterday morning, I 
deserted my wife for breakfast today to try again.  This time it paid off, as 
the bird was there  and was close to the edge of the pond west of the bird 
blind.  Attached is a link to a video.

Happy summer birding, 

Peter

Red Phalarope was easily viewed on the 2nd pond this morning at 7:15AM, still 
happily feeding at 8:45AM when I left. Thanks to Drew H for putting me on the

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope Continues

[Peter Reisfeld]

After hanging around for 2 hours and missing the bird yesterday morning, I 
deserted my wife for breakfast today to try again.  This time it paid off, as 
the bird was there  and was close to the edge of the pond west of the bird 
blind.  Attached is a link to a video.

Happy summer birding,

Jones Beach Phalarope location clarification Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope, JBWE, YES

[David Jordet]

Hello,
Just to clarify the phalarope is located at Jones Beach West End (JBWE -- 
Nassau County) NOT Jamaica Bay wildlife refuge (JBWR Queens County). 
These near identical acronyms looked like they might pose a problem for some. 
Hope this helps avoid navigation errors and wasted days-offs in search of this 
beautiful bird!

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope, JBWE, YES

[Queensgirl]

Still feeding at 2nd pond when I arrived at 11:15am, observed with Brooklyn 
birders Cathy and Karen. Flew to 1st pond (nearest to Nature Center) around 
noon, where it sat at the far end and, after 30 minutes, flew left, possibly 
into the phragmites area. Birders are at the location now, waiting for the 
phalarope to re-appear.

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope Intel +

[Andrew Baksh]

I received some Intel suggesting that the Jones Beach Red Phalarope could be 
one that was being seen at Plum Island MA. That bird was also a female with a 
missing foot.

A quick peruse of the MA list serve showed the bird was last reported on July 
8th.

In other other non Phalarope related news, I picked up an eBird alert this 
evening of a "Reddish Egret" reportedly observed today on the West Pond at 
Jamaica Bay. The eBird checklist provided no description of the bird other than 
it was photographed by two other observers and that the submitter was awaiting 
the photos.

Not sure what to make of this...

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope Picture and Notes

[Steve Walter]

I pulled out the heavy artillery optics to bring you a picture with wow
factor. Who are we kidding? It's a self-satisfying thing.
http://www.stevewalternature.com/

 

Some notes. I arrived around 2:30 to hear that the Red Phalarope hadn't been
seen in a hour. I first stopped at the easternmost pond, where I was told
she had been seen for a while feeding. Looking at the amount of water, it
was a surprise to hear that. The evaporation has been rapid, and by the time
I left around 6:00, there was almost no water at all. So it might be more
appropriate to use the term "pond bed". The next pond bed to the west also
had little water left. After about two hours, I was fearing that the
phalarope might have left because the water had dried up on her. Eventually,
she did show up at the easternmost pond bed, at one point passing over and
disregarding the useless remaining puddle. But she did spend considerable
time on dry land, providing hope for those that are considering going
tomorrow. There is another pond bed to the southwest, which is retaining a
bit more water, and perhaps providing enough interest to the phalarope to
keep her around. That is where she was located at about 4:30.

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope -Yes

[syschiff]

Park at the Nature Center and walk west about 350 yards to the blind. In 
addition to the RED PHALAROPE in the pool,  there was a continual movement of 
shorebirds landing on the flats and then going west. A GULL-BILLED TERN made a 
brief appearance and the fly by COMMON TERNS repeatedly spooked the shorebirds 
(but not the phalarope--it does appear to be missing a foot).

Re: [ebirdsnyc] Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope WE2 Ponds JBSP Update

[Andrew Baksh]

A few people e-mailed me for further details on the whereabouts of this
bird so I figured I would send a broadcast message.

When I left, about 30 minutes ago, the Red Phalarope was still showing
well. It sporadically takes flight in response to a number of variables
including low flying aircraft. As seen earlier, when it disappeared for
over 20 minutes it returned eventually to the ponds, just be patient and
check all three ponds. Please do not attempt to go down into the ponds as
it may spook everything and it may very well not return.

For logistics, park in the Teddy Roosevelt Nature Center parking lot and
head west through the dunes towards what appears to be an old blind--look
for people with scopes etc. Additionally, Least Sandpipers, White-rumped
Sandpiper, Short-billed Dowitchers, Semipalmated Sandpipers, Killdeers,
Semipalmated Plovers, Eastern Willet along with both Lesser and Greater
Yellowlegs are in the area.

Happy Phalarope Friday!

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope WE2 Ponds JBSP Update

[Andrew Baksh]

The Red Phalarope that was found this morning by Bob Anderson, took flight from 
one of the ponds near the Teddy Roosevelt center heading east--I lost it as it 
banked towards the ocean.

The bird was showing well but kept getting spooked by low flying aircraft.  It 
kept moving back and forth between the two ponds. However, since this last 
flight about 25 minutes ago it has been a no show.

I don't know if the swale has any water but I'll check that area and post an 
update either way.

Re: [ebirdsnyc] Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope WE2 Ponds JBSP Update

[Andrew Baksh]

A few people e-mailed me for further details on the whereabouts of this
bird so I figured I would send a broadcast message.

When I left, about 30 minutes ago, the Red Phalarope was still showing
well. It sporadically takes flight in response to a number of variables
including low flying aircraft. As seen earlier, when it disappeared for
over 20 minutes it returned eventually to the ponds, just be patient and
check all three ponds. Please do not attempt to go down into the ponds as
it may spook everything and it may very well not return.

For logistics, park in the Teddy Roosevelt Nature Center parking lot and
head west through the dunes towards what appears to be an old blind--look
for people with scopes etc. Additionally, Least Sandpipers, White-rumped
Sandpiper, Short-billed Dowitchers, Semipalmated Sandpipers, Killdeers,
Semipalmated Plovers, Eastern Willet along with both Lesser and Greater
Yellowlegs are in the area.

Happy Phalarope Friday!

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope, Purple Sandpipers - Niagara Falls, Ont.

[Willie D'Anna and Betsy Potter]

A RED PHALAROPE  was very cooperative today near the Canadian shore of the
Niagara River in Niagara Falls, Ontario.  It was very near the shore with
the sunken barge in the background.  You sometimes had to walk right up to
the railing and look down to see the bird.  From the same spot, one could
look at the rocks at the base of the small waterfall to your right and see
two PURPLE SANDPIPERS.

 

It was very slim pickins for the gulls, exceptionally few today.  I expect
they will be back tomorrow with the dumps closed.  There was a juvenal
BLACK-LEGGED KITTIWAKE below the falls and another in Buffalo, opposite the
Lark Sparrow spot in Fort Erie (Central Ave. and Niagara Parkway).  The LARK
SPARROW was seen today.  A LITTLE GULL was seen in Lewiston/Queenston,
downriver from the Queenston boat ramp.  Also in the area was a BLACK
VULTURE.  An adult PEREGRINE FALCON was sitting on the Robert Moses power
dam, seen several times today.  We did not see it go after any gulls today,
though we did see it catch a BONAPARTE'S GULL on Thanksgiving day.

 

Good birding!

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope at Spuyten Duyvil

[Joseph DiCostanzo]

About 9 am I had a Red Phalarope land in the ship canal visible from my
apartment window at West 218th Street next to Inwood Hill Park in northern
Manhattan. The bird drifted westward towards Spuyten Duyvil and the Hudson
River. We tried to bird the Hudson from the west end of Dyckmann Street, but
police closed off the area.

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope, Brooklyn waterfront 12/17

[Bkbirdr]

A Red Phalarope was found by my team on the Brooklyn (Kings County) CBC.  
Location is behind the Fairway market in Red Hook, at the end of Van Brundt  
street. The bird was in the section of water bounded by the artist's 
warehouses  on the left and the water taxi pier on the right (across from the 
rusted out  trolley cars.) It was swimming back and forth quite close to the 
wall 
 alongside the artist's warehouse, actively feeding and preening at times. 
See  around 2 p.m.
 
A photo is on my Facebook page here:

This is the first record for a Kings County CBC.
See by: Janet Zinn, Alan Baratz, Eric Salzman, Jerry Layton
 
Good luck if you go. (I know at least one of our Brooklyn CBC folks were  
heading over tonight!)

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope Continues

[vanhaas]

An amazing assemblage of shorebirds were present on Skinner Lane in Orange 
County this morning the most notable of which was the continuing RED PHALAROPE. 
 At least a dozen birders viewed the bird during the hour and half I was 
present this morning.  I had a total of sixteen species this morning, fourteen 
of which were on Skinner.  Highlights included 

American Golden Plover - 20
Pectoral Sandpiper - 31
White-rumped Sandpiper - 4
Semipalmated Plover - 4
Semipalmated Sandpiper -35
Least Sandpiper - 15
Greater Yellowlegs
Lesser Yellowlegs
Spotted Sandpiper
Short-billed Dowitcher - 4
Wilson's Snipe - 6
Sanderlings - 3
Killdeer - to many to count

Farther out in the fields, a Kestrel, Merlin and Harrier flushed large mixed 
species flocks of shorebirds that may have contained anything.  I have added 
one more pic to my blog, hopefully a better one of the phalarope as well as a 
BAIRD'S SANDPIPER which I found this morning at Apollo Plaza in Monticello. 
Great Birding!  John Haas

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope @ Sagaponack

[Hugh McGuinness]

At about 4:15 this afternoon I found a basic plumage RED PHALAROPE at  
the south end of Sagaponack Pond (Suffolk Co.). The bird was best  
viewed from the pond entrance along Sagg Main Street just before the  
beach. The bird was at  40°54'39.20"N,  72°17'8.46"W. The only avian  
sign that spring might be in the process of happening here on the East  
End were the 7 GREATER YELLOWLEGS and 5 LESSER YELLOWLEGS in the  
southeast corner of the pond.

At nearby Mecox Bay the extensive flat had several hundred shorebirds,  
although PIPING PLOVER was the only non-wintering species present. A  
first-year LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULL was in the gull flock.

Good birding to all!

[nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope - NOT Seen Again; Hamlin Beach Highlights

[Willie D'Anna and Betsy Potter]

Thanks to Andy Guthrie for posting the Red Phalarope this morning.  Around
7:45 a.m., Betsy and I were driving east on the Lake Ontario Parkway and had
a shorebird going in the same direction.  We pulled over to look but only
got the tail as it continued east.  We pulled over again but too soon and we
never got the head and bill.  Finally, the third time we pulled over, I
noticed that the bill was too short for a Dunlin, which I had assumed this
bird would be, and Betsy noticed a dark facial patch.  Now, of course, we
were thinking Phalarope.  We got back in the car to follow the bird but
shortly it veered and headed low behind some trees where there was a large
pond.  Most of the pond was obscured by thick trees but we found an opening
toward the east end, which allowed a view of a small piece of the pond.  On
that small piece was a RED PHALAROPE!  Our lucky day!  Unfortunately, the
bird was not found shortly afterward by Andy, nor by us when we looked again
shortly after noon.

After the phalarope, we headed to Hamlin Beach, where we had three groups of
BRANT totalling 16 birds, each group flying right along the shoreline.  The
other highlights were a PARASITIC JAEGER, several groups of all three
scoters, including many adult male Surf, a few LONG-TAILED DUCKS, and a
couple of RED-THROATED LOONS.

On the outer wall at Point Breeze, we had two juvenile LESSER BLACK-BACKED
GULLS.

Good birding!
Willie
