Hi all:
=20
Today Dorothy Poole=2C Pat Gladman and I did some birding in Queens County.=
  At Ragged Harbour we found a northern parula=2C a red-eyed vireo=2C and a=
n orange-crowned warbler.  In East Berlin=2C along Andrew's Point Road we s=
aw an American kestrel.  We also discovered a juvenile red-headed woodpecke=
r.  This bird was seen first near the entrance of Andrew's Head road as it =
flew into a tree beside the road.  It then flew back the other way.  There =
is a mailbox with Wilson on the side of it.  The drive goes in a long ways =
and you can see telephone poles all along the drive.  We observed the red-h=
eaded woodpecker at a distance.  We then went in and it flew to a pole righ=
t beside the car.  It then flew to the top of a bush in which we all got a =
perfect view of it.  It afterwards flew back out towards the main road to w=
here we originally saw it.  We were unable to relocate it. =20
=20
At West Belin=2C we found an American Coot in the large pond.  There is a y=
ellow checkered sign beside the road with an arrow and this is where the co=
ot was.  While watching the coot we discovered another bird in the reeds cl=
ose by.  Upon getting the scope out we were quite surprised to find a juven=
ile common moorhen. =20
