[nysbirds-l] Photos of Female Red Phalarope at West End (Nassau Co.)

2015-07-10 Thread Ken Feustel

I have posted a few distant photos of the female Red Phalarope at the West End 
(Jones Beach State Park) ponds on my flickr site. This beautifully-plumaged 
female is quite a stunner. If you get a chance definitely take the time to look 
for it. Congrats to Bob Anderson on a great find!

Re: [ebirdsnyc] Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope WE2 Ponds JBSP Update

2015-07-10 Thread Andrew Baksh

A few people e-mailed me for further details on the whereabouts of this
bird so I figured I would send a broadcast message.

When I left, about 30 minutes ago, the Red Phalarope was still showing
well. It sporadically takes flight in response to a number of variables
including low flying aircraft. As seen earlier, when it disappeared for
over 20 minutes it returned eventually to the ponds, just be patient and
check all three ponds. Please do not attempt to go down into the ponds as
it may spook everything and it may very well not return.

For logistics, park in the Teddy Roosevelt Nature Center parking lot and
head west through the dunes towards what appears to be an old blind--look
for people with scopes etc. Additionally, Least Sandpipers, White-rumped
Sandpiper, Short-billed Dowitchers, Semipalmated Sandpipers, Killdeers,
Semipalmated Plovers, Eastern Willet along with both Lesser and Greater
Yellowlegs are in the area.

Happy Phalarope Friday!

[~BEGIN RBA TAPE~]

Greetings! This is the New York Rare Bird Alert for Friday, July 10 at 6:00
pm.

The highlights of today’s tape are RED PHALAROPE, ARCTIC TERN, WHITE-FACED
IBIS, WHIMBREL, YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER, BLUE GROSBEAK, and SUMMER TANAGER.

A breeding-plumaged female RED PHALAROPE this morning dropped into the
pools between Jones Beach West End Lot 2 and the Roosevelt Nature Center
and was still there in mid-afternoon.

Certainly unexpected by location was a subadult ARCTIC TERN found Saturday
morning near South Jamesport Park on the North Fork, the bird photographed
as it associated with two immature FORSTER’S TERNS on Peconic Bay; the
three birds took off shortly, and though the FORSTER’S returned, the ARCTIC
did not.

The Captree Island WHITE-FACED IBIS was reported as recently as yesterday,
though not noted on a regular basis lately.  Look for it among the GLOSSY
IBIS in the marsh north of the private community road west of the Robert
Moses Causeway, and please park appropriately off the road.

Now as the shorebird migration is starting up, with the first wave of
adults heading south, a few WHIMBREL have already appeared in our region.
Singles last Sunday were spotted at Marine Park in Brooklyn and Cupsogue
County Park in Westhampton Dunes, with another at Breezy Point Wednesday
and one at Piermont Pier in Rockland County today.  Among the expected
species on the move have been decent numbers of SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHERS and
SEMIPALMATED SANDPIPERS plus lower totals of LESSER and GREATER YELLOWLEGS
and LEAST SANDPIPERS.  A WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPER was also at Cupsogue
Sunday, along with a BLACK TERN.

Unfortunately the East Pond at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge, one of the east
coast’s most celebrated feeding and resting stopover points for shorebirds,
is nowhere near ready to accommodate the first wave passing through now.
If you’d like to voice your concerns and request better, more attentive
management of the East Pond’s water level, please call Dave Taft at
718-338-3625 or email him at dave_taftnpsgov.  Thanks if you do.

At Breezy Point along with the WHIMBREL Wednesday were an immature LESSER
BLACK-BACKED GULL and four WILSON’S STORM-PETRELS offshore. Seabird numbers
seem to have been slight for the week, but a research boat out of
Connecticut last Monday did note 15 WILSON’S STORM-PETRELS in very eastern
Long Island Sound in the vicinity of Little Gull Island.  They rarely make
it far into Long Island Sound, but it is something to watch for.

A COMMON EIDER was with 21 BLACK SCOTERS off Rockaway Beach Thursday.

A ROYAL TERN was noted Sunday at Plumb Beach in Brooklyn, where two young
GREAT CORMORANTS were seen moving by with three DOUBLE-CRESTED CORMORANTS
on Monday.  A small number of non-breeding GREATS often summer on Long
Island, so these and the one Tuesday at Bush Terminal Piers Park in
Brooklyn are not that unexpected.

Single male BLUE GROSBEAKS were noted Sunday at Connetquot River State Park
and Wednesday at the former Grumman Airport grasslands in Calverton, while
at least two YELLOW-THROATED WARBLERS were still being seen and heard just
inside the entrance booth at Connetquot this week.

And reports of “new” locations this week for a SUMMER TANAGER in Manorville
and a BLUE GROSBEAK in Rocky Point indicate there are probably even more
out there to be discovered.

For the next two weeks, the RBA will be handled by Tony Lauro-- please call
Tony with reports at 631-734-4126.

This service is sponsored by the Linnaean Society of New York and the
National Audubon Society. Thank you for calling.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope WE2 Ponds JBSP Update

2015-07-10 Thread Andrew Baksh

The Red Phalarope that was found this morning by Bob Anderson, took flight from 
one of the ponds near the Teddy Roosevelt center heading east--I lost it as it 
banked towards the ocean.

The bird was showing well but kept getting spooked by low flying aircraft.  It 
kept moving back and forth between the two ponds. However, since this last 
flight about 25 minutes ago it has been a no show.

I don't know if the swale has any water but I'll check that area and post an 
update either way.

[~BEGIN RBA TAPE~]

Greetings! This is the New York Rare Bird Alert for Friday, July 10 at 6:00
pm.

The highlights of today’s tape are RED PHALAROPE, ARCTIC TERN, WHITE-FACED
IBIS, WHIMBREL, YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER, BLUE GROSBEAK, and SUMMER TANAGER.

A breeding-plumaged female RED PHALAROPE this morning dropped into the
pools between Jones Beach West End Lot 2 and the Roosevelt Nature Center
and was still there in mid-afternoon.

Certainly unexpected by location was a subadult ARCTIC TERN found Saturday
morning near South Jamesport Park on the North Fork, the bird photographed
as it associated with two immature FORSTER’S TERNS on Peconic Bay; the
three birds took off shortly, and though the FORSTER’S returned, the ARCTIC
did not.

The Captree Island WHITE-FACED IBIS was reported as recently as yesterday,
though not noted on a regular basis lately.  Look for it among the GLOSSY
IBIS in the marsh north of the private community road west of the Robert
Moses Causeway, and please park appropriately off the road.

Now as the shorebird migration is starting up, with the first wave of
adults heading south, a few WHIMBREL have already appeared in our region.
Singles last Sunday were spotted at Marine Park in Brooklyn and Cupsogue
County Park in Westhampton Dunes, with another at Breezy Point Wednesday
and one at Piermont Pier in Rockland County today.  Among the expected
species on the move have been decent numbers of SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHERS and
SEMIPALMATED SANDPIPERS plus lower totals of LESSER and GREATER YELLOWLEGS
and LEAST SANDPIPERS.  A WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPER was also at Cupsogue
Sunday, along with a BLACK TERN.

Unfortunately the East Pond at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge, one of the east
coast’s most celebrated feeding and resting stopover points for shorebirds,
is nowhere near ready to accommodate the first wave passing through now.
If you’d like to voice your concerns and request better, more attentive
management of the East Pond’s water level, please call Dave Taft at
718-338-3625 or email him at dave_taftatnpsdotgov.  Thanks if you do.

At Breezy Point along with the WHIMBREL Wednesday were an immature LESSER
BLACK-BACKED GULL and four WILSON’S STORM-PETRELS offshore. Seabird numbers
seem to have been slight for the week, but a research boat out of
Connecticut last Monday did note 15 WILSON’S STORM-PETRELS in very eastern
Long Island Sound in the vicinity of Little Gull Island.  They rarely make
it far into Long Island Sound, but it is something to watch for.

A COMMON EIDER was with 21 BLACK SCOTERS off Rockaway Beach Thursday.

A ROYAL TERN was noted Sunday at Plumb Beach in Brooklyn, where two young
GREAT CORMORANTS were seen moving by with three DOUBLE-CRESTED CORMORANTS
on Monday.  A small number of non-breeding GREATS often summer on Long
Island, so these and the one Tuesday at Bush Terminal Piers Park in
Brooklyn are not that unexpected.

Single male BLUE GROSBEAKS were noted Sunday at Connetquot River State Park
and Wednesday at the former Grumman Airport grasslands in Calverton, while
at least two YELLOW-THROATED WARBLERS were still being seen and heard just
inside the entrance booth at Connetquot this week.

And reports of “new” locations this week for a SUMMER TANAGER in Manorville
and a BLUE GROSBEAK in Rocky Point indicate there are probably even more
out there to be discovered.

For the next two weeks, the RBA will be handled by Tony Lauro-- please call
Tony with reports at 631-734-4126.

This service is sponsored by the Linnaean Society of New York and the
National Audubon Society. Thank you for calling.

Re: [ebirdsnyc] Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope WE2 Ponds JBSP Update

2015-07-10 Thread Andrew Baksh

A few people e-mailed me for further details on the whereabouts of this
bird so I figured I would send a broadcast message.

When I left, about 30 minutes ago, the Red Phalarope was still showing
well. It sporadically takes flight in response to a number of variables
including low flying aircraft. As seen earlier, when it disappeared for
over 20 minutes it returned eventually to the ponds, just be patient and
check all three ponds. Please do not attempt to go down into the ponds as
it may spook everything and it may very well not return.

For logistics, park in the Teddy Roosevelt Nature Center parking lot and
head west through the dunes towards what appears to be an old blind--look
for people with scopes etc. Additionally, Least Sandpipers, White-rumped
Sandpiper, Short-billed Dowitchers, Semipalmated Sandpipers, Killdeers,
Semipalmated Plovers, Eastern Willet along with both Lesser and Greater
Yellowlegs are in the area.

Happy Phalarope Friday!

 The Red Phalarope that was found this morning by Bob Anderson, took flight
 from one of the ponds near the Teddy Roosevelt center heading east--I lost
 it as it banked towards the ocean.

 The bird was showing well but kept getting spooked by low flying
 aircraft.  It kept moving back and forth between the two ponds. However,
 since this last flight about 25 minutes ago it has been a no show.

 I don't know if the swale has any water but I'll check that area and post
 an update either way.
