Hi Folks, Bob Adamo requested that I post a few of his Horned Grebe photos on my Flickr page. They are quite nice and so is the bird. Enjoy. http://www.flickr.com/photos/39025168@N07/ Best, Derek Rogers Sayville -- Forwarded message -- From: ROBERT ADAMO Date: Thu, Jul 19, 2012 at 8:07 PM Subject: [nysbirds-l] Horned Grebe/Alternate Plumage//Flanders To: NY BIRDS This afternoon, thanks to yesterdays post by Derek Rodgers, plus his subsequent answer to my query re: general location, I found this gorgeous individual in the creek that ends at Dam Trail, ~ 50' w/o Peconic Trail (which runs n/o Rt. 24) in Flanders. The bird swam, sometimes with some mallards, but did nothing else (albeit, move it's head and stretch it's neck) in the 1/2 hour, or so, that I photographed it. It didn't dive, etc., but did look healthy. I also had occasion to pass the 2, historically successful Osprey nests located near the Peconic Estuary, in Flanders. The 1st, at the intersectioon of Routes 24 and 105, the 2nd, on a small island in the P/E, just e/o the Rt. 105 bridge over the Peconic River. These nests are only about 200 yards apart, as the Osprey flies.! The 1st nest held an adult and 2 young -who, by the way they were flapping their wings, should be airborne shortly ! This nest (which, I think has fledged young for at least the past 4 years) defies logic. It sits atop a pole/platform, situated at one of the most heavily traffic-ed and noisy crossroads on the "east-end". The Osprey must be quite a hearty specie to be able to thrive in the face of the amount of pollutants that are emitted from car/truck exhausts on a daily basis. Because of the time, I was only able to view the island nest as I slowly crossed over the bridge, seeing only a single bird (which I took to be an adult) and therefore, don't know it's status this year. I do know this nest predates nest #1 by quite a few years, and believe it has produced young many years running.
