that was replaced still has a page dedicated to it but is 'static' meaning
it doesn't need monthly maintenance except for the addition of new
informational links.

re:[nysbirds-l] any reports of Ross's Gull seen today?

[Thomas Fiore]

hi John & all,

There do not appear to be any sightings of Ross's Gull from anywhere  
in NY state since sometime Thursday morning (Feb. 2nd) -


and there was a further, negative report on a reported sighting of  
Ross's Gull in Rhode Island which as some have pointed out was a  
report indicating an adult-like plumage, which of course the Tupper  
Lake (Adirondacks) Ross's seen & photographed by many hundreds was not  
(NY's Tupper Lake sighting was a young bird);


an attempt at finding the other gull (in Rhode Island) was noted,  
archived here:  http://digest.sialia.com/?rm=message;id=1273658  (nota  
bene: the locations given in that post, Napatree and Moonstone Beach  
are within Rhode Island, from near Westerly to near South Kingston.  
The report of Ross's Gull had been from Trustom Pond, R.I., which is a  
National Wildlife Refuge. See: http://digest.sialia.com/?rm=one_list;id=122 
  if wanting any more on that report.)


still, one can continue to hope!  and give thanks to NY North Country  
birders and residents for their updates and hospitality, with a tip  
'o' the hat to Nick Bonomo of CT.

[nysbirds-l] Central Park NYC - Red-headed WP, rehabbed R.-n. Grebe, etc. 2/5

[Thomas Fiore]

Sunday, the 5th of February, 2017
Central Park, Manhattan, N.Y. City

A Red-necked Grebe found on the Central Park reservoir very late in  
the day last Wednesday (almost certainly the bird that was  
subsequently reported as released there on that day, by the Wild Bird  
Fund rehab center which is on Manhattan's upper west side) is  
continuing on the reservoir today, and has been seen feeding and  
diving often - it moves around all around the entire reservoir - and  
thus it can be "missed".

A young Red-headed Woodpecker, now with some red feathering on the  
head (or "hood") continues its' winter stay in Central, at the area  
just west of East 68th Street, south of a park entrance at East 69th  
and the woodpecker regular near a modest-size Shagbark Hickory tree  
that is along the first path west of the above-noted streets.   
Standing to the immediate north of a rustic shelter atop the Dene  
area, on a rocky outcrop, or the path just below & north, may find the  
woodpecker which can be well above eye-level much of the time, but has  
been seen at ground-level also; it has been very active at times and  
is sometimes aggressive to other birds, & even to squirrels in its'  
"territory"; a patient wait of some minutes usually reveals this  
active Red-headed moving about, in the general areas described above.

Additional species on the CP reservoir include 2 Pied-billed Grebes, 4  
Hooded Mergansers, multiple American Coots, Northern Shovelers and  
Buffleheads as well as other expected winter species there.  A drake  
Green-winged Teal has moved up to 'The Pool' near West 100-103  
Streets, and a drake Wood Duck has been somewhat regular at 'The Meer'  
along with modest variety of other birds; a drake Northern Pintail & a  
Wood Duck were maintaining their presence at 'The Pond' as well as the  
occasonal visitor Great Blue Heron and the long-staying Coot.  
(sightings from 7 a.m. thru 2 p.m.)

Other species remaining in Central Park this Sunday include:

Double-crested Cormorant
[Greater] Canada Goose
Gadwall
American Black Duck
Mallard
Ruddy Duck
Cooper's Hawk
Red-tailed Hawk
American Kestrel
Ring-billed Gull
[American] Herring Gull
Great Black-backed Gull
Rock Pigeon
Mourning Dove
Red-bellied Woodpecker
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker
Downy Woodpecker
Hairy Woodpecker
Yellow-shafted Flicker

-
(& probably a few additional wild & native species of birds)

good birding, and thanks to those respecting all wildlife and other

[nysbirds-l] Possible Pacific Loon Marine Park, Brooklyn

[Adrian Burke]

The previously reported bird is visible now from the little boardwalk
overlook on the east side of the water, south of the osprey nest. The bird
is distant, but looks like the possible pacific loon reported recently
here. Unfortunately I don't have a scope, so my views are not good.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Ross's Geese - Short Pond, Water Mill, Suffolk

[Bruce Horwith]

2 Ross' and 4 Snow geese at 9:30 this morning, but they took off shortly
after -- may be in one of the fields south of the pond. And a mature bald
eagle over Montauk Hwy near Bridgehampton Commons. They now seem to be so
common I wonder if they are "report worthy". In any event, I still find
them impressive. Ruddy duck and common mergs on Kellis Pond, just west of
the Commons.
