Re:[nysbirds-l] Mtn bluebird CONTINUES Tues 12-19
I just got a report that the bird is being seen now @ 11:14am These directions may be better if you are unable to use the map links below. from the Northwest corner of the Robert Moses field 2 lot, walk to the paved roadway and continue west onto the sand road ( by foot, permit access only!) continue west. you will see the roadway fork, with a sharp left turn - but **continue STRAIGHT** along bay side. after walking **way down** past the open area to your right that is fenced off by string, the road will jog left for ~75', then jog right (west) now you will be separated from the bay side by thick bayberry bushes - continue on. you will see a "grey telephone pole like stump" along the left/south edge. I also scraped an arrow in the sand some 50' +/- to the west of that, the bird has been seen in this area ( on south side ) and delightfully, frequently perches at the very top of the trees along the edge of the road.
