I returned to Liverpool today to try and find some of the rarer species see=
n on Dec. 14. The United Baptist Cemetery in Liverpool had been a hotspot =
on that day. By the entrance there were four Baltimore orioles feeding on =
berries. I managed to see one of them today. It was pure luck in being in=
the right place at the right time as the bird was on the ground. I manage=
d a quick photo and then it disappeared not to be relocated. I'm not sure =
if the other three are still present or not.
I struck out on the other species of which they were a gray catbird, a red-=
bellied woodpecker ( could be the same one that stopped by at Dorothy Poole=
's yard a few days before the count), a clay-colored sparrow, and chipping =
sparrows.
I also tried to find the northern mockingbird behind Sobeys, but no luck an=
d for the blue-winged teal in Brooklyn. Also, not present today were three=
red-throated loons of which two had been off Fort Point and the other in t=
he river.
Also missed today was a Barrow's goldeneye that had been found in the river=
. All I could find there today were common goldeneyes. The cemetery had b=
een hopping and I had about 23 species there.
I did not have time to go out to Western Head to try for the northern ganne=
ts, the two species of murre, razorbills, Atlantic puffins and an orange-cr=
owned warbler. The later had been found at the turn down to Western Head L=
ight and the other species seen at high tide off the lighthouse on Dec. 14.
I'm hoping that someone will get chance to check out the Western Head light=
to see if any of those good birds are still moving past.
