Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope still present this morning as of about 10 am

One more very interesting finding about the Eastern Hog-nosed snake - 
their specialty food is TOADS! The snakes, apparently, are adapted to be 
immune to the toxin in the toad's skin. In contrast, they are rarely 
kept as pets because they don't like feeder mice (unless the mice are 
first scented with amphibians).


They strike but do not bite, and instead flip over and play dead when 
threatened.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope still present this morning as of about 10 am

2015-07-22 Thread John Laver
I (John Laver), Nancy O'Keefe & Barbara Saunders observed a dozen or so
Fowlers Toads at various points around the TRNC at Jones Beach West End
last weekend.

I thought I saw the rear end of a fox fleeing from my approach, as I hiked
out to observe the Red Phalarope last Sunday - but I can't confirm it.

I haven't checked this year, but usually there are lots of juvenile
Fowler's toads  in the sandy areas near the fishermen's parking area
past the Coast Guard station. Never have figured out where the
freshwater was over there.

2015-07-22 Thread John Laver
I (John Laver), Nancy O'Keefe  Barbara Saunders observed a dozen or so
Fowlers Toads at various points around the TRNC at Jones Beach West End
last weekend.

I thought I saw the rear end of a fox fleeing from my approach, as I hiked
out to observe the Red Phalarope last Sunday - but I can't confirm it.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Red Phalarope still present this morning as of about 10 am

2015-07-22 Thread Ardith Bondi

I did not see any Fowler's toads today, but saw several last week.

The rangers also told me that they are trying to keep track of the 
population numbers for the Hog-nosed snake, so if you see one, you might 
let them know where and when. It is a very pretty snake.


They said the only other snake normally found out there is a garter snake.
