It IS pretty far south for Great Gray OwI. However, I saw my first Great Gray
Owl on the North Shore of Long Island in the late 1970's (it was an invasion
year).

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone else would agree that this is pretty far south for a Great
Gray. Is the person who made the report a list subscriber? It would be god to
get more details.
Thanks!

A heads up anyway:
There's an eBird report, as yet without any documentation - other than
"clearly a Great-gray", reported from NY Rt. 23 about halfway between Acra
and Windham.

Central Park Bird Walk Sunday December 7, 2014
Canada Goose
American Black Duck - female at Indian Cave
Mallard
Northern Shoveler - more than 40 on the Lake, others on the Reservoir
Bufflehead - flock reservoir
Hooded Merganser - pair on Turtle Pond, others at the Reservoir
Ruddy Duck - flock on
I caught a brief but diagnostic view of an adult Northern Goshawk soaring low,
then power diving over the northwest portion on the Loch at approximately 12:15
pm. This is in the north end of Central Park in NYC at roughly 103rd street.
The bird was observed during my final NYC Audubon Birding
The Black - headed Gull was still there today as of 2:30 pm. I saw it with
Ring-billed Gulls sitting on a dock at the end of two parallel ramps extending
into the water from the shore, south of the water treatment plant, which is
southwest of the Five Islands Park parking lot. Much smaller
The famed Cassin's Kingbird at Floyd Bennett Field is still around and
appears to be in good shape. It was still finding grub today to feed on,
despite yesterday's downpour and today's chilly weather and strong winds.
Wouldn't it be terrific if it lingers for another 2 weeks and can be seen
and
At 1:45pm on the way back from cutting a Christmas tree my wife and I pulled
over on the side of the LI expressway between exits 69 and 68 and observed
presumingly the same previously reported pair of bald eagles (1 adult, 1
immature) soaring and drifting further east.
Keep your eyes open,
You might want to check out the NYSOA CBC calendar at
http://www.nybirds.org/ProjCBC.htm. Most of the NY counts and contact info are
there.

Hello All,
I will be traveling to Long Island in the Islip area the 17th through the 27th.
I am looking to participate in any Christmas Bird Counts that may be occurring
in that time frame. If anyone could put me in touch with coordinators I'd
greatly appreciate it.
Best Regards,
Carson
For those of you interested, the Common Ground-Dove continues at Jones
Beach West End.
It is currently feeding in the parking lot near the first exit. Good luck
if you try for it.
