[nysbirds-l] Eastern L.I. including Glaucous Gull

2012-09-23 Thread Seth Ausubel
I led a trip for the Queens County Bird Club today to a few eastern Long Island 
spots.  We had some good birds despite the late-passing cold front and strong 
north winds. At our morning meeting place on Route 106/107 in Jericho we had 2 
COMMON RAVENS flying around the Whole Foods Shopping Center.  At Smith Point 
County Park in Shirley land birding was slow.  The best we managed was an early 
Brown Creeper.  There were also 3 ROYAL TERNS over the ocean and over 100 
Northern Gannets.  The best bird was an immature GLAUCOUS GULL in the parking 
lot.  We were informed that this bird had been around for several weeks.  We 
continued on to Shinnecock Inlet, where we had 2 WHIMBRELS flying west.  At the 
boat launch just east of the Ponquogue Bridge, we had another 10 ROYAL TERNS.  
At Road K west of the Ponquogue Bridge, we relocated the Whimbrels in the marsh 
near the island.  Dune Road was not very productive, so we headed to Mecox 
Inlet, where we found an adult LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULL among the gulls 
roosting on the flats.  Gabriske Airport was quiet.  The sod fields at 
Manorville held only a few Black-bellied Plovers, but scanning the skies was 
productive. We saw 4 Turkey Vultures, a Cooper’s Hawk, and 3 COMMON NIGHTHAWKS. 
 All in all a very pleasant day.

I have posted a couple of photos of the COWA and BLGR. The Grosbeak appears
to be the same one I spotted on Friday.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/darylcav/sets/72157631606921350/

Other notable birds today were a Nashville Warbler, Blackpoll Warbler, two
Red Breasted Nuthatches, a female Indigo Bunting, and a Peregrine Falcon.
