Date: 11/13/25 7:37 pm From: Tom Fiore <tomfi2...> Subject: [nysbirds-l] N.Y. County, NYC - 11/13 Clay-colored Sparrow, etc.
N.Y. County -in N.Y. City- including Roosevelt Island, Randalls Island, Governors Island, and Manhattan island and the adjacent waters and skies above -
thru Thursday, 11/13 -
A Clay-colored Sparrow was lingering on Roosevelt Island in the area of fields south of Cornell Tech, to at least Thursday. In Manhattan at least one Lincolns Sparrow was still being seen at Pier 26, just south of Hubert Street on Manhattans lower-west, along the Hudson River greenway corridor. Also in Manhattan an E. Phoebe was in Central Park, likely just one of a low-multiple of that species to be lingering or still-passing thru. The long-staying N. Waterthrush was also still at Central Park.
A rather-late American Redstart was seen on Randalls Island on Wed. and Thursday, not at all record-late dates, although well-past any peak-numbers for this, or for most of our migratory warbler species that pass thru in the autumn. Wilsons Snipe was among other birds showing on Randalls Island for Thursday. Over all of the county, sightings of warblers were diminished thru the changing weather of this week, although some of last weeks warbler species may still be lingering in some locations.
There has been some migration on all mornings of this week so far, a lot of that being of expected species for the season, Common Grackles, Red-winged Blackbirds, Cedar Waxwings, American Robins are among the non-waterbirds that are still on the move. American Pipits have been continuing in some select sites.
Good birding to all and thanks again to all observers, and photographers for many sightings and reports.
