[nysbirds-l] Northern Shrike at Floyd Bennett Field
My directions to the Northern Shrike were not clear enough yesterday because you have to cross 2 runways. I saw the bird on the eastern side of the main north-south runway, approximately 300 yards south of the Model Plane stand. The bird was on top of a tall tree in the brushy area, maybe 30 yards off the runway. It was there for about 10 seconds before it swooped down, and I lost it.
