RE: [nysbirds-l] Least Bittern

[Gus Keri]

The Upper pool is the first body of water by the east corner of the ballfield.
You can find it on this map. Just write Upper pool in the search box

The last time I saw the bittern it was high on tree opposite of the back gate 
of the pool.
Good luck

Re:[nysbirds-l] Least Bittern in Prospect Park-YES

[Rob Jett]

Heydi Lopes & I waited out the morning's early downpour under the shelter at 
the end of the Peninsula. At around 8:15am, a few minutes after Heydi left to 
stake out the patch of phragmites by the edge of the Peninsula Meadow, I 
spotted the Least Bittern flying from Duck Island, west, passed the end of the 
"Thumb". I quickly called Heydi, who then watched it fly in front of her and 
into its preferred patch of phrags to her right.

I pedaled home, drenched, but happy.

Good birding,

Rob

Re: [nysbirds-l] Least Bittern, JBWR, Queens, from Tim Healy

[Tim Healy]

Please be ethical in following up on this report. It should go without saying, 
and I shouldn't have had to hesitate and consider whether or not to share this 
record. Least Bittern, though certainly undetected, is an uncommon and 
sensitive species in our area. Potential breeders should not be harassed with 
playback. This individual is quite close to the trail, and readily audible as 
it is. We heard it as we were walking out, and were even able to get quiet 
phone recordings. Good luck if you go for it. 

Cheers!

 Harry Maas and I observed a young Least Bittern being fed by a 
 parent Least Biitern. 
 The birds were seen from about 730-830 when they disappeared 
 into the outage.
 The birds are in the same location as mentioned in previous 
 posts best watched from the south end of the pond. Look north 
 about 200 feet and scan. The birds were far so I might post a 
 picture later of the young one if it's in focus.
