Picking up Peter Post's April theme, the only Pileated Woodpecker I ever 
saw in the five boroughs was on 28 April 1999 at Wave Hill, (Riverdale) The 
Bronx.

Re: [nysbirds-l] PILEATED WOODPECKER IN THE BRONX

2012-05-06 Thread Peter Post

Debbie:

There are Pileated Woodpecker records from The Bronx, Manhattan, and  
Queens: two from VanCortlandt Park (one photographed), one from  
Inwood Hill Park (also photographed), and one from Forest Park. I saw  
the photos  of one of the VanCortlandt birds and the one from Inwood.  
Unfortunately, I don't remember who the observers were. But, I  
reported one (both?) of the VanCortlandt birds in the Kingbird when I  
wrote the Region 10 report (with guy Tudor) many years ago, and you  
can find this information online. The Forest Park bird was present  
for several days and was seen by the great Tom Davis among others.  
The Inwood and VanCortlandt birds were all in April. I don't remember  
the time of year of the Forest Park bird but I believe it was also in  
April. Knowing Tom, I'm sure that this record was also published.  
Apparently this is the time of year when Pileated Woodpeckers wander.  
Young birds looking for mates?


Knowing all this is the advantage (the only advantage) of out-living  
most of my contemporaries.


Nice find. I been looking for one for appear in Central Park for many  
years.

Any additional information -off line- would be appreciated.

We have them occasionally on Staten Island. Possibly a resident pair in the 
greenbelt, otherwise a rare migrant from March through early May.
