Good Friday,14th April, 2017 -
Manhattan, Chelsea neighborhood, N.Y. City
A well-plumaged Cattle Egret continues its visit at a small-ish greenspace, on
the north side of 28th Street, between Eighth & Ninth Avenues in Manhattan. In
the early morning at least, the Egret was a bit closer to Eigth Ave. - it was
feeding reasonably, as it has been for the days of observations.
I also visited some smaller parks in the lower-mid Manhattan area, & most
seemed to hold very scant migrant or late-lingering wintered-over birds. The
Hudson river along lower Manhattan also appeared relatively quiet and the
greenspaces alongside somewhat the same, with the exception of lingering
Atlantic Brant in some areas, which are not unexpected into or even thru April.
Thanks to Ardith Bondi for her note on the Central Park reservoir (Manhattan)
Red-necked Grebe which she photographed Thursday; this bird was also reported
by a few others, in various media. Should that grebe linger on into next week,
it will certainly seem very likely that it is the same which was rehabilitated
in Manhattan & subsequently released to the CP reservoir. It is mobile within
the reservoir & it seems to be feeding well.
Peaceful birding,
Tom Fiore
