Hello all, Ari Waldstein and I had a productive morning at Caumsett SP (Suffolk).
It was overall fairly birdy with a couple highlights: Four white-winged scoters surprised us on the sound beyond the fishing pier. A pair of meadowlarks in the first field beyond the parking lot. A northern shrike sitting in the largest dead tree in the fields adjacent to the barns. Good birding, Ben Weinstein Caumsett SP, Suffolk, US-NY Nov 11, 2012 8:00 AM - 10:00 AM Protocol: Traveling 4.26 mile(s) 30 species American Black Duck 10 Mallard 10 White-winged Scoter 4 Red-breasted Merganser 4 Common Loon 5 Sharp-shinned Hawk 1 Red-tailed Hawk 1 Killdeer 2 Sanderling 5 Ring-billed Gull 1 Belted Kingfisher 1 Red-bellied Woodpecker 1 Downy Woodpecker 1 Hairy Woodpecker 1 Northern Flicker 1 Northern Shrike 1 Blue Jay 4 Red-breasted Nuthatch 1 White-breasted Nuthatch 2 Golden-crowned Kinglet 1 Eastern Bluebird 5 Hermit Thrush 5 American Robin 10 Northern Mockingbird 2 Song Sparrow 4 White-throated Sparrow 20 Dark-eyed Junco 10 Northern Cardinal 2 Eastern Meadowlark 2 Purple Finch 2 -- Ben Weinstein Graduate Student Ecology and Evolution Stony Brook University http://life.bio.sunysb.edu/~bweinste/index.html -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
