[nysbirds-l] Fwd: Horned Grebe - Reeves Bay, Flanders, NY

2012-07-18 Thread Derek Rogers
Anyone that had high hopes in seeing a Solitary Sandpiper away from freshwater 
can continue that dream. I didn't beat the extremely slim odds. As most may 
have assumed, the bird mentioned below was a juvie Spotted, not a rare Tringa. 
It was hot out today...

Maybe tonight's rain will drop some interesting birds on the flats.

[nysbirds-l] Horned Grebe - Reeves Bay, Flanders, NY

2012-07-18 Thread Derek Rogers
I thought this was noteworthy. Friend Tom Haskell just sent me photos, that he 
took today, of a Horned Grebe in Reeves Bay. The bird sported its beautiful, 
full on breeding plumage.

On a separate note, the flats at Cupsogue produced a single Pectoral Sandpiper 
this afternoon. There was also a Solitary Sandpiper stalking insect prey on the 
sandy beach area located just west of the flats. Other than that, its been the 
usual, expected mix of shorebirds and terns.

I was at the wetland off Porter-Center Road in Lewiston this morning and
found the White-faced Ibis around 9:45 where it continued until 10:30 when I
left.  Chris Hollister was also there, and as soon as his car pulled away I
found an American Bittern in some low branches over the water directly
across from the parking lot.  Other birds included Green Herons, a
Kingfisher, Bobolinks, Meadowlarks, Greater and Lesser Yellowlegs,
Short-billed Dowitcher, Stilt Sandpiper, Least Sandpiper, Semipalmated
Sandpiper, several Killdeer, a half dozen Great Blue Herons, a female Wood
Duck, and some Cliff Swallows.  

 

Good Birding,

Both birds reported by Shane Blodgett as he worked in from the Southend on the 
East Pond at Jamaica Bay.
Good and responsible birding!

[nysbirds-l] Horned Grebe - Reeves Bay, Flanders, NY

2012-07-18 Thread Derek Rogers
I thought this was noteworthy. Friend Tom Haskell just sent me photos, that he 
took today, of a Horned Grebe in Reeves Bay. The bird sported its beautiful, 
full on breeding plumage.

On a separate note, the flats at Cupsogue produced a single Pectoral Sandpiper 
this afternoon. There was also a Solitary Sandpiper stalking insect prey on the 
sandy beach area located just west of the flats. Other than that, its been the 
usual, expected mix of shorebirds and terns.

Best,
