Joe, According to Sibley, Great-tailed may range that far east. Watch their eyes - Gulf Coast Boat-taileds have dark eyes and Great-tailed light. Congrats on...
Great - I opened my mouth to soon. Now my Mom says tomorrow morining is a possibility. Good luck to everyone who are trying to get out there today - there must...
If it's still around next Saturday I will most likely be journeying out there. As a matter of fact I believe I will be going out there regardless of whether...
Hi all, I've posted the new quiz: www.groups.yahoo.com/group/nysyoungbirders This will probably be the last quiz for the summer, or at least for July. Please,...
This morning I headed over to Cupsogue to look for the Curlew Sandpiper. I got there around 10:30, but the tide wasnt low enough and the flats werent exposed....
Congrats on the Curlew Sandpiper. They really are stunning birds. What other shorebirds were around? What was it hanging out with? Shawn...

I knew you'd go for it today. Well congrats on finding it (revenge for Heislersville eh?). According to my tide reference, low tides tomorrow will be around...
Nope. You got the genus though (even though thats not saying much =).....Baird's is up there on my favorites too. JT Brendan F <birderbf@...> wrote: Is...
From photos it was seen with Semi Plovers, Semi Sandpipers, Dunlin, Short-billed Dowitcher and other regular stuff like that. Turns out I was wrong again! Due...
Sorry for the late reply. It spent much of its time running around with a small flock of about 6 or 7 peeps and Dunlin. Also there were numerous Short-billed...
Hi all, Since the Curlew Sandpiper has *apparently* left (no word since they couldn't find it the day when a storm screwed up the tides), I was happy to see...
Everybody, I have just read and signed the online petition: "Rattlesnake Roundup Call To Action" hosted on the web by PetitionOnline.com, the free online...
Stay ONE more day! I've got plans to head out there tomorow (my reluctant parents actually agreed to take me to see a rare bird! yay!) Anyone else going to...
I was going to see it, but I already saw it. ;) Maybe Yogu Berra would say that. Yes I did see it today late morning. Beautiful bird - and it dances for you...
Actually no. Yogu was his long lost brother who was an extreme twitcher. Seriously though - my typing has gone down the drain all of a sudden! Brendan Shawn...
Joe, I don't know what you would consider early, but I would recommend that you don't get there too ridiculously early. I got there at 6:00 AM today and not...
I'll be going to see the bird tomorow afternoon with my mentors Howie and Eva. My moms happy because she doesn't have to take me - I'm worried, hoping the...
Hi everyone, I have noticed that some people haven't had any new additions to the year list recently. Summer birding blues or what? ;) Good birding, Brendan...
Summer birding blues like you wouldn't beleive! I'm 0-3 on the last few NY rarities and all the birds were seen fairly close by - first the Curlew Sandpiper,...
Joe, You still have the time for the last two! That reef-heron is going be getting trickier, as low slows shifts to midday, when the birds won't really want to...
Well it looks like the reefer is having fun touring the New York region. This from the NJ RBA (I usually disregard them). A WESTERN REEF-HERON was reported...
My summer has been going along nicely, yesterday I got to see the Western Reef-heron that was hanging around dreier-offermann park. But the real interesting...
Hi, Thats great! Congratulations on such a fabulous total. Its a great milestone. My yearlist currently stands at 303. I'm heading down to Brooklyn tomorrow...
