[nysbirds-l] Jones Beach birds

[Tim Healy]

I had the opportunity to swing down to the shore after work. A large hatch out 
of ants provided a feast for about a hundred Laughing Gulls at Jones Beach 
Field 6. The median at the West End featured some nice activity. Ruby-crowned 
Kinglets and Red-breasted Nuthatches were foraging in the pines, and there were 
phoebes and pewees flycatching from the branches. Warblers included several 
Redstarts, a Parula, a Yellow-rump, a bright Pine, and a handsome male Cape May 
who put on quite a show. There were other birds flitting about but the fading 
light put an end to the outing too soon. Multiple Merlins, a Peregrine, and 
some very vocal Black-crowned Night-Herons were also observed. 

Cheers!

[nysbirds-l] Jones Beach Birds (Nassau Co.)

[Ken Feustel]

Despite the date, a mornings birding at Jones Beach State Park yielded a nice 
winter bird list. We started out at the West End Boat Basin, where a few 
breeding-plumaged Horned Grebes were the highlight. We then headed over to the 
Fisherman’s parking lot, birding along the Inlet jetty.  The Red-necked Grebe 
was still present at the mouth of the Inlet, and a Piping Plover was sitting on 
the jetty. At the south end of the jetty we saw our first Northern Gannets 
(two) since January. There was a steady stream of Tree Swallows in groups of 
2-3 crossing the Inlet from Pt. Lookout. At the end of the jetty were five 
Harlequin Ducks. In the dune area west of the parking lot a small number of 
Tree Sparrows continued. Walking back on the north side of the parkway towards 
the boat basin we spied the Northern Shrike perched up in the trees between the 
Fisherman’s parking lot and the parkway. A search of Zach’s Bay area was not 
particularly productive, a lone Merlin being the only bird of interest.

Think Spring!
