[nysbirds-l] American Pipits at Floyd Bennett field

2019-11-11 Thread Gus Keri
In the past few days, these birds were reported in the Cricket field but today 
this field was empy on two visits, 3 hours apart, due to the presence of 
raptors (Harrier, Kestrel, Cooper's and Red-tailed Hawk). The grass here is 
very short and doesn't provide much protection.
But while checking the field in front of the Aviator Center that has tall 
grass, I flushed a flock of 5 pipits that flew toward the golf course on the 
other side of Flatbush Ave across from the cricket field. 
I followed them and found out that the golf course is fenced in and I couldn't 
get in.
I went back to the field in front of the Aviator center and I flushed another 
flock of 11 pipits. But this time, they didn't fly away. They stayed in the 
same field and I was able to get photos and videos.
Here is a video of few of them:

Good luck finding them if you go there

Re: [nysbirds-l] Ash-throated Flycatcher on Staten Island

2019-11-11 Thread Gus Keri
Is it possible the same one we saw last week at Shore Road Park?
 We saw it in the section near Verrazano bridge, exactly across the water from 
where it is being seen now.
