Note: A minimum of 5 Brown Pelicans have been seen on the south shore
of Long Island this past week. Past such events have been known to
include some visiting Connecticut too, so this is an excellent time to
keep your eyes out. (For anything really, not just pelicans!)

mainly heard, giving only a couple of very quick, 1-second views, from

once. It was the Bob-Bob-White call. It was quite clear. I heard it

web research today and found that Bobwhites were released less than 20
miles away in the vicinity of Hope Valley, RI, at the end of May.

Subject: CT Report 07/30/2009 WHITE-FACED IBIS
From: Roy Harvey <rmharvey(AT)snet.net>
Date: 30 Jul 2009 9:54pm
From Frank Gallo:
07/30/09 - Milford, Silver Sands State Park -- A White-faced Ibis was
feeding with 21 Glossy Ibis at Silver Sands State Park this afternoon,
on the lawn on the left side of the entrance road, just before you
turn left toward the parking lots. A jogger flushed the birds, and
they flew into the marsh and river channel just to the east, along the
east edge of the park. The channel can be viewed from the south end,
just east of the traffic circle, at the very end of the entrance road.
The Ibis tend to congregate in the channel and marsh at high tide, or
feed on the lawns along the entrance road. I finally relocated the
bird in the channel just before two deer flushed all the ibis and
shorebirds in the marsh. The flock flew north along the channel but
could not be relocated by Frank Mantlik or me.
From George Pagliaro with Seth Harvey:
07/30/09 - Middlebury, Tranquility Rd -- Red-headed Woodpecker
continues, in the same location, first grove on the right, seen after
about 1 h 45m.
From Twan Leenders:
07/30/09 - Stratford -- around 10:30: one WHIMBREL foraging on the
Short Beach side of Stratford Point with the outgoing tide. Observed
for about 5 minutes after which it flew west (toward Stratford great
Meadows?)
From Paul Cianfaglione:
07/30/09 - Rocky Hill, Rocky Hill Meadows -- 1 SOLITARY SANDPIPER.
From Sam Fried:
07/29/09 - Bloomfield house -- fly by Black-crowned Night-Heron, first
for my house in 15 years, uncommon inland.
