Re: [nysbirds-l] Dark morph Bohemian Waxwing pic from Scotland

John Gluth called a little before this and reported both the Common Ground-Dove and the Western Kingbird along the road to the south lot. John said the dove flew northeast, which would place it where Shane saw it, along the northern edge of the eastern-most lot. Shai Mitra Bay Shore

Great birding again today in the county. We are having a learning experience with the Great Cormorant. It was not seen today, but photos provided to us by Ellie Knierieman have brought a whole new light on the bird. The Great Cormorant has been roosting in TREES She provided us with

[nysbirds-l] Common Ground-Dove continues at captree State Park

I just received a call from Shane Blodgett who says the dove is now near the spot where it was originally found, which is the eastern most parking lot in Captree. Apparently it's been elusive and disappears for long periods -- NYSbirds-L List Info:
