[nysbirds-l] Franklin's Gull at Plum Beach, Brooklyn Sunday May 24th

[Deborah Allen]

Bob DeCandido and I went to Plum Beach in Brooklyn after lunch today (May 24) 
to 
look for the recently reported Nelson's Sparrows, which we didn't find. Bob 
headed back to the car while attempted to comb through the Laughing Gulls in 
search of the Black-headed Gull that had recently been reported. I wasn't able 
to find the Black-headed Gull, but decided to try for a few flight shots of the 
gulls. When we got home, I looked through my photos and found a Franklin's 
Gull. Here's a link to the photo:

The Franklin's Gull was hanging around with the Laughing Gulls on the beach, 
which kept flying up because of all the foot traffic. Most of the gulls were 
fairly close to the sand bar. 

Also a small flock of Sanderlings and some Least Terns.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Little Egret on Long Island?

[Jay McGowan]

We looked around Gardiner County Park for quite some time (7-10) on
Saturday morning and again briefly this morning at 8. Very few waders were
around at all, with only a couple of Snowy and two or three Great egrets in
the vicinity. Others checked the Captree area yesterday as well with no
results. In general, however, I was disappointed at how few people we saw
out looking for the egret. The folks I did see seemed to mostly be local
birders. Although our lack of results may have proven them correct this
time, I was surprised at how many people took a day of negative results to
mean the bird was gone.

Dune Road yesterday afternoon was generally quiet. The highlight from a
brief seawatch off Robert Moses State Park from 6-7AM was a single SOOTY
SHEARWATER out in the waves heading east at the beginning of the count.
Otherwise gannets, Black Scoters, a pair of Common Eiders, and the usual
gulls, terns, and loons were the only birds.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Doodletown in Harriman State Park

[Robert Lewis]

I would add a Black-billed Cuckoo seen well, about 2/3 the way up the trail, 
around 10:30.  Also an Eastern W. Peewee.

Doodletown was extremely active this morning.  Cerulean Warblers and Hooded 
Warblers in abundance and singing everywhere from just above Rt 9 all the way 
up.  A male Kentucky Warbler was singing loudly perched high in a tree - to get 
there stay to the right past the pond and stop just past the stream crossing 
under the road, he should be singing loudly.  
A good number of Worm-eating Warblers throughout singing; Pileated Woodpecker 
seen near the base of the road up (maybe nesting near there again this year); 
Tanagers throughout, singing; and a Yellow-billed Cuckoo near the base.  Dipped 
on the Olive-sided Flycatcher unfortunately.

[nysbirds-l] Cupsogue Co. Park Birds and Repair Update (Suffolk Co.)

[ken feustel]

We visited Pike's Beach and Cupsogue County Park this morning, encountering an 
extremely low tide and persistent west winds. Shorebird numbers were low, with 
most the common species present. The  highlight was three Arctic Terns on the 
flats north of the parking lot - two adults and a first summer bird with Common 
Terns, one Forster's Tern, and twelve Black Skimmers.  Photos are on my flickr 
site.

Last September, the Cupsogue concession building and bathrooms burnt down, and 
a visit to the Park this past March did not indicate any construction activity. 
Well, the County's contractors must have been working some long hours, because 
there is a new deck providing access to the ocean, and three new trailers 
housing the food concession, bathrooms, and lifeguard and first aid services. 
While this would appear to be a temporary repair (the food trailer being 
particularly small), it is heartening to know that there will be some basic 
services at the park this summer.
