[nysbirds-l] Sullivan County Waterfowl Fallout
The heavy rains put down a lot of birds in the county yesterday. There was almost no detectable passerine movement, but Loons, Scoters, Cormorants etc as well as a few shorebirds put in an appearance. http://bashakillbirder.wordpress.com for a complete account.

[nysbirds-l] Sullivan County Waterfowl
I had a fabulous morning of birding this morning in northern Sullivan County. Last nights weather event produced a significant fallout of waterfowl in the county. Even small bodies of water seemed to hold at least a few birds. My list of sightings is as follows: Kiamesha Lake: 1 - Pied-billed Grebe 3 - Horned Grebe 1 - Red-necked Grebe 52- Bufflehead 9 - Ring-necked Duck 12- Long-tailed Duck 3 - Lesser Scaup (John Haas reported 8 later in the morning) Morningside Lake: 18- Horned Grebe 2 - Red-necked Grebe 4 - Bufflehead 9 - Long-tailed Duck 2 - Ruddy Duck Neversink Res. : 2 - Gadwall 7 - Black Duck 10- Bufflehead 5 - Red-breasted Merganser 30- Long-tailed Duck 6 - Ring-billed Gull 1 - Bonaparte's Gull Rondout Res: 3 - Bufflehead 3 - Red-breasted Merganser 1 - Common Loon Swan Lake: 4 - Horned Grebe 3 - Mallard 8 - Black Duck 9 - Ring-necked Duck 14- Lesser Scaup 17- Green-winged Teal 20- Bufflehead 2 - Ruddy Duck 1 - Common Loon Kauneonga Lake: 23- Bufflehead 3 - Red-breasted Merganser 7 - Lesser Scaup Superior Lake: 1 - Horned Grebe 35- Bufflehead 2 - Ring-necked Duck 7 - Lesser Scaup Also had an additional 5 Long-tailed Ducks on a small pond near Liberty and 1-2 Eastern Meadowlarks in Bethel. My only disappointment was I couldn't find any scoters which was surprising considering the numbers of other sea ducks in the county. -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
