Greetings. This is the New York Rare Bird Alert for Friday, September 11th
2020 at 10pm. The highlights of today's tape are WESTERN KINGBIRD, WILSON'S
PHALAROPE, MARBLED GODWIT, BUFF-BREASTED and BAIRD'S SANDPIPER, WHIMBREL
and other shorebirds, LEAST BITTERN, SORA, CASPIAN TERN, LARK SPARROW, PINE
SISKIN, KENTUCKY and other warblers, BLUE GROSBEAK, DICKCISSEL and more.
A moderate week for migration did feature a WESTERN KINGBIRD appearing
briefly Tuesday morning at Dix Hills Park in Dix Hills before flying off.
A good variety of shorebirds included a WILSON'S PHALAROPE out at Sagg Pond
in Bridgehampton Saturday followed by another spotted at the very wet north
end of the East Pond at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge on Monday. A MARBLED
GODWIT was featured on the video cam at Oceanside Marine Nature Study Area
as it visited the channels there from Wednesday through today. Single
BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPERS were found at Croton Point Park in Westchester
Wednesday and at Timber Point Golf Course in Great River Thursday while
single BAIRD'S SANDPIPERS this week were noted at Jamaica Bay Monday, at
Mecox Monday through Thursday and at Heckscher State Park Wednesday. A
WHIMBREL visited Timber Point yesterday and a couple of calling LONG-BILLED
DOWITCHERS flew around the traditional site at Santapogue Creek in West
Babylon last Monday. Other shorebirds seen at multiple locations this week
included STILT, WHITE-RUMPED, WESTERN and PECTORAL SANDPIPERS with 17 of
the latter counted at Timber Point Thursday.
At Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge Monday both the LEAST BITTERN and the SORA
appeared around the East Pond while on Tuesday another LEAST BITTERN was
spotted at Arshamomaque Preserve in Greenport on the north fork and much
more unexpectedly a SORA appeared in Bryant Park in central Manhattan.
During the week single CASPIAN TERNS occurred at Jamaica Bay Wildlife
Refuge and at Timber Point as well as farther east at Mecox Bay and Sagg
Pond while a high count of ROYAL TERNS reached 64 at Timber Point Thursday.
Two RED-HEADED WOODPECKERS were still along the Paumanok Trail near Jones
Pond on Wednesday this off Schultz Road in Manorville.
Both YELLOW-BILLED and BLACK-BILLED CUCKOOS were seen during the week as
were a few OLIVE-SIDED FLYCATCHERS and various species of empidonax
flycatchers.
Still sparse, single PHILADELPHIA VIREOS were noted Saturday in Prospect
Park and at the Quogue Wildlife Refuge. Three LARK SPARROWS this week
featured singles at Floyd Bennett Field Tuesday, Jones Beach West End by
the Coast Guard Station Wednesday and Thursday and Stony Brook Thursday. A
PINE SISKIN was spotted at Teatown Reservation in central Westchester
Monday.
A KENTUCKY WARBLER was a surprise at Fort Tilden last Saturday and among
other warblers noted this week were GOLDEN-WINGED, MOURNING, HOODED, CAPE
MAY, BAY-BREASTED and PALM.
A BLUE GROSBEAK was found at Robert Moses State Park Monday and a
DICKCISSEL has been visiting the north end of Central Park since Wednesday.
