This morning, I had a lone Cave Swallow at Captree SP (Suffolk) around 10:30AM.
It did not linger as it flew generally westward. Maybe this bird flew on to
nearby Venetian Shores?
I had gone down to the south shore in hopes of seeing more than one Franklin’s
Gull in the same day. Instead, I saw
Started at Robert Moses for a chance at finding a Franklin's Gull but no luck.
After birding the area I decided to make a run to Dune Road. Using my van as
wind break at Tiana Beach I located my bird, a lifer for me. Smaller and
mantle lighter than what I was expecting. Adult bird with three
I led a Linnaean Society trip to Jamaica Bay today. It was a gorgeous,
though breezy day. Easily the highlight were two Cave Swallows flying around
the Broad Channel subway station in mid-day. The group was finishing lunch
at the refuge when one person who had headed down to the subway to go home

I was able to see and photograph the small group of Cave Swallows in Coney
Island this afternoon between 4 and 4:30. It's worth mentioning the birds
were thoroughly investigating underneath the decking of the senior center
bordering the Coney Island boardwalk between 24th and 23rd streets.

I made a trip to Breezy around noon in search of Cave Swallows and perhaps
a Franklin Gull (where did they go?). There was one obvious Cave Swallow
just a short way up the 4WD road from the parking lot that gave brief but
good looks. Then, closer to the beach, there was a sizable flock (20-30)

After Dennis Hrehowsik's initial report this morning there continued to be a
nice trickle of Cave Swallows at Coney Island throughout the day. The birds
were moving from east to west.
At one point Keir Randall, Josh Malbin and I watched a flock of 9 near W. 24th
St. and the boardwalk. There are

to view this bird, and to Rich Guthrie for making the arrangements, Denise and

So now I'm going to say that it is not necessary to wait for the previous
"schedule" of visits.
I will be there at 10 O'clock today (not sure about 2 o'clock). But you
don't have to wait for me to go in.
Same thing tomorrow. Not too early, please, and be mindful.
Fingers crossed.

I spoke with the homeowner this morning and all is forgiven (that's their
nature).
So birders are again welcome to come and visit the yard to watch for the
Harris's Sparrow (and Bohemian Waxwing?).
Today and tomorrow (Sunday) are now OK.
Please - do not park in the driveway (apparently that's wh
