[nysbirds-l] Clay colored sparrow croton point

[Trachlar]

Around 400 pm today Karalyn Lamb found a clay colored sparrow at CPP. it was on 
the ball field by entrance in the NW corner near far bench; close to fence line 
associating with four adult white crowned sparrows and two savannah sparrows

There was also a low flyover above the landfill of seven glossy ibis this am. A 
nice bird for the river side of the county.

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow Jones beat west end 2, Nassau county

[kevin rogers]

Hi All,
Just had a clay colored Sparrow as I walked by the bicycle path entrance about 
150 yards past the entrance/toll booth at west end 2. On same side of the road 
as the sand spit, not the ocean side...Also 4 or 5 marbled godwits are present 
on the spit, and 2 surf scoters are in close to the boat basin, currently 
feeding. 
Kind Regards-Kev
Just saw the clay colored again, now just before the bike path...same area...

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow Flushing Meadows Queens NY

[Andrew Baksh]

Dear Peeps,

I managed to shoot some video today while observing the Clay-colored
Sparrow at Flushing Meadow Park in Queens, which I wanted to share for
anyone interested.

Today's rain, coupled with a very active bird made it quite difficult to
get decent video scoping footage, so don't be too hard on me about the
production. I removed portions of the various clips where it was too blurry
or the bird was absent and slowed the frames down to give the viewer time
to study the field marks of the bird.

Many thanks to Steve Schellenger who was a good spotter in helping me track
the bird when shooting with my scope and iPhone.

The video is publicly accessible at https://flic.kr/p/CpitGj

Best,

Andrew

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow - Queens

[Tom Johnson]

NYbirders,
The Spizella sparrow continues at Flushing Meadows now (same locations,
with the junco flock) - in life, there is no doubt that it's a Clay-colored
Sparrow. Thanks for posting the photos and sharing the sighting.
Cheers,
Tom Johnson
Hummelstown, PA

RE: [nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow, Queens

[Steve Walter]

Clay-colored Sparrow still at this location today. Between lunch and after work 
visits, I’ve been able to find it on four straight trips. It will take five, at 
least, to get a good picture. Cooperation only goes so far. Also a Lincoln’s 
Sparrow there today.

 

Since I know someone that will ask, butterflies were limited to Cabbage Whites 
and an Orange Sulphur that seems to have escaped a Phoebe foray.

Just another Clay-colored Sparrow – is it even worth reporting anymore? But 
this one is away from the barrier beach, so a bit different. It was seen a 
little while ago in the field across from Oakland Lake, part of the Alley Pond 
Park chain. At least at the time, it wasn’t associating with the many Chipping 
or Savannah or any other sparrows.

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow in Brooklyn

[Rob Jett]

This morning Sandy Paci and Kathy Toomey spotted a Clay-colored Sparrow in 
Brooklyn's Green-Wood Cemetery. Joshua Malbin and I were able to eventually 
track it down again at about 2pm. The bird came down to drink and bathe inside 
the mostly drained Dell Water pond. There is a trickle of water at the 
southeast corner of the pond and, if one is patient, there is a nice mix of 
birds coming down to that spot. In addition to the clay-colored we had several 
resident species, 13 species of warbler, phoebe, Blue-headed Vireo, Red-eyed 
Vireo, Swainson's Thrush, Scarlet Tanager, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Indigo 
Bunting, Baltimore Oriole and Chipping Sparrow … all coming to the "waterfall"!

Good birding,

Rob

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow Captree SP

[Shaibal Mitra]

Pete Morris and I found a Clay-colored Sparrow along the southeast corner of 
the northeast lot at Captree SP, Suffolk, LI.

The bird struck me as not quite typical in a couple of ways and the date is 
slightly early for a southbound bird on LI, but it clearly showed a nice 
auricular patch edge in black below, completely pale lores, a brown rump, and 
nice buffy breast and flanks.

Some photos can be seen at the end of this album:

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow in Brooklyn

[Rob Jett]

I received this second hand report that I thought I should share with the list.

A Clay-colored Sparrow was observed in Prospect Park yesterday near the 
Maryland Monument and Wellhouse Drive. Klemens Gasser posted some photos on his 
Flickr page here:

https://m.flickr.com/#/photos/gasserberlin/15836779838/

It's getting a bit late in the year for this species, so it would be a very 
nice addition to the Brooklyn CBC if it stays until Saturday. Here's more 
details from Klemens email to me:

"It was at Maryland monument where the fenced in bushy area is next to the 
street and later around the cut down tree on peninsula Meadow. With a first 
winter CHSP, other CHSPs and DEJU."

Good birding,

Rob

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow Captree SP, Suffolk, LI

[Shaibal Mitra]

Rare on Long Island in spring, a Clay-colored Sparrow was an unexpected find at 
Captree SP, Suffolk, LI this morning.

Initially, it fed along the grassy margins of the northern edge of the main 
lot, between the bait and tackle shop east of the concession building and the 
hedge occupied by the cat colony:

https://picasaweb.google.com/109808209543611018404/LongIslandMiscellany2014#6011481797723496418

Later, it flew north over the bay, then arced back to the left and appeared to 
land a little bit west of the concession building.

As mentioned by Tom F, it was a very dynamic morning in this part of the state, 
with many Neotropical migrants moving around in the rain and fog.

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow - Forest Lawn - Buffalo

[joetf1973]

I had a Clay-colored Sparrow at Forest Lawn Cemetery earlier this afternoon. 
The bird was seen briefly near Mirror Lake. There is a large weeping willow 
across the road from the Birge Memorial - on the lake side of the road (the 
Birge Memorial is the round structure of columns near the NE corner of Mirror 
Lake). There are many Chipping Sparrows, and at least one Field Sparrow in this 
area - you may have to look through a lot of other sparrows. This bird is more 
gray-brown, and the median stripe is very distinct.


Dennis Gralak had many warblers earlier - I think I was able to re-find most, 
including: Yellow, Palm, Yellow-rumped, Black-and-white, Nashville, 
Black-throated Blue. 


I believe he had Blue-headed and Warbling Vireos as well. I may have heard Pine 
Siskins, but I am not positive, and I did not see any in the short time I was 
there.

[nysbirds-l] Clay Colored Sparrow at marine Park

[Isaac Grant]

As facing the nature center go down the path on your left. Cross over the 
bridge. Make first left and follow fence line. When the fence ends, make a left 
( it is the first left you can make ) and then continue to go left. You will 
see a ball field on your left. Bird was along the perimeter of the field in a 
mixed flock of sparrows.

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow in Montauk

[Anthony Collerton]

This morning at Theodore Roosevelt C.P. in the 'pocket grasslands' (dry
ponds full of seeding sedges) near the HQ building.  There also were 14
Bobolinks, 3 Indigo Buntings and an assortment of common sparrows.

Still a few Cory's Shearwaters visible from Camp Hero this morning - along
with the usual 'goat rodeo' of hundreds of fishing boats chasing back and
for after a few False Albacore.  Lots of Phoebes, Palm Warblers and
Yellow-rumped Warblers moving this morning, but couldn't pick up anything
unusual in the time I had.

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow in the pumpkin patch, Wading River

[Sara Burch]

We went pumpkin picking at the Lewin Farm Pumpkin Patch on 25A just past Sound 
Ave near Wading River, Long Island and were treated with a CLAY-COLORED SPARROW 
hanging out with a bunch of Yellow-rumped Warblers who were hawking near the 
wooded fenceline on the eastern side of the field. There were lots of Tree 
Sparrows flying around above the pumpkin patch until a MERLIN came flying 
overhead and cleared the air. An unexpected and surprising nice couple of finds 
for a site we weren't even planning on birding!

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow tripleheader

[John Gluth]

A day spent birding (9:15-3:30) along the barrier beach strip from
Jones Beach west end to Captree State Park did not turn up any vagrant
kingbirds of any species, the continuing strong SW wind making for tough
birding in general. But some good birds were to be had. A CLAY-COLORED
SPARROW was making use of the "hedge" in front of the Coast Guard station
at west end, and a BLUE GROSBEAK was nearby, seen briefly atop some vines
growing on the station's western fence, then flying over to a nearby poplar
tree before continuing westward. Little of note was found during visits to
Tobay, East Gilgo, Overlook Beach, and Oak Beach Road, heading east along
Ocean Parkway. The result was the same at Robert Moses State Park, until
I encountered another 2 CLAY-COLORED SPARROWS, seen together along the
entrance road to the park administration building. This was around 3:00.
An E. Wood Pewee was also in the vicinity. I finished up an Captree Island,
where 2 of the 3 immature Little Blue Herons seen by Michael McBrien
Saturday were still present.

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow, etc - Jones Beach West End 10/9

[Brendan Fogarty]

A Clay-colored Sparrow was again present at the West End 2 parking lot's 
central exit, on the "island" I have described in recent emails. Few other 
birds were present there except a White-crowned Sparrow and singles of 
Black-throated Blue and Blackpoll Warbler.
 
The Clay-colored was the only Spizella in its area, although dozens of Chipping 
Sparrows were present at the Coast Guard Station. Highlights there included a 
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker flyby, a  Red-eyed Vireo, a Lincoln's Sparrow, and 
an Indigo Bunting.
 
In nonpasserine news, a massive flock of cormorants (over 600 Double-crested) 
and gulls was following some school of fish in the inlet, as visible from the 
Boat Basin, and an adult Lesser Black-backed Gull was loafing in the West End 2 
parking lot.

Have a nice weekend everyone,

[nysbirds-l] Clay-Colored Sparrow at Cedar Beach (Suffolk Co.)

[Ken Feustel]

A Clay-colored Sparrow was present this morning at the northwest  
corner of the Cedar Beach (Town of Babylon) parking lot. The bird  
favored a row of stored lifeguard stands and was in the company of  
Song and House Sparrows. Otherwise, there were few birds at the Cedar  
Beach Marina and Cedar Overlook Beach.

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow - Jones Beach West End, 9/28

[Brendan Fogarty]

This evening a nonbreeding Clay-colored Sparrow quite literally replaced the 
female Dickcissel (from Friday) on the West End lot 2 "island." At one point 
the small sparrow flock frequenting the island took off for the shelter of the 
shrubs immediately around the West End 2 pavillion. Again, for those unfamiliar 
with the location, throwing the following stream of numbers into Google's map 
feature will reveal the exact location:
 
40.585172,-73.560607

Despite strong onshore winds, no notable pelagics were seen except one Royal 
Tern. A young White-crowned Sparrow continued in the Coast Guard Station 
hedgerow, and a male Hooded Warbler briefly joined the sparrows on the West End 
parking lot 2 island.
 
Photos of this week's Dickcissel and Clay-colored Sparrow can be found here:

[nysbirds-l] Clay-colored Sparrow at Robert Moses State Park (Suffolk Co.)

[Ken Feustel]

A Clay-colored Sparrow was discovered on the west side of the RMSP  
Field 2 picnic area this morning, where it was observed feeding on the  
panic grass with a White-throated Sparrow (FOS for us) and Song  
Sparrows.  Other birds observed included Warbling, Red-eyed, and White- 
eyed Vireo's, as well as our FOS Yellow-rumped Warbler. Good numbers  
of Northern Flickers and Merlins (always an entertaining mix) were  
also moving down the barrier beach.
