Re: [nysbirds-l] Unchaseable Varied Thrush, Manhattan, NYC yesterday
Congratulation, David, on hitting the jackpot: 777 followers at Brooklyn Bird Alert. You also reached 415 followers on Queens Bird Alert and 400 followers on Bronx Bird Alert. But the number of your followers on Manhattan Bird alert is staggering 5963 In total, you have 7555 followers It is amazing. You even cover Staten Island (in Brooklyn bird alert) and Long Island (in Queens bird alert) and Westchester (in Bronx bird alert) and New Jersey (in Manhattan) This speaks volume to the great work you do for birders all over NYC area and beyond. Many people appreciate all the timely info you provide in your accounts and many are benefitting a lot from it by getting on some exciting birds. My only wish is that those who follow you and get the benefit of your tweets would return the favor and start using the hashtag words for each account. It will only take an additional few seconds for every tweet they write. Just add #birdbk for Brooklyn tweets, #birdqu for Queens tweets and #birdbx for Bronx tweets and #birdcp for Manhattan tweets. David works very hard to keep the city birders well-informed. He deserved all the help he can get from the birding community.

There is no such address as Central Park West and 57th Street. Central Park West ends (or starts, depending on how you look at it) at 59th Street. Peter Post.

[nysbirds-l] Unchaseable Varied Thrush, Manhattan, NYC yesterday
After some days of strong, favorable westerly winds, at least two western vagrants were observed in Manhattan yesterday: the HARRIS'S SPARROW in Central Park (as previously noted here) and a VARIED THRUSH. The latter was a window-strike victim, found at 57th and Central Park West, and immediately taken to the Wild Bird Fund on the Upper West Side. Photo and comments on the find here: https://twitter.com/wildbirdfund/status/1059116791564263424 If the bird recovers, it is possible that birders might get to see it during or after its release. Usually these releases take place in Central Park. Those interested should stay in touch with the Wild Bird Fund, and we will do the same.
