A Tale of a Hawk Identification

By Corey October 6, 2009 3 comments

Rich Guthrie found a very strange hawk for upstate New York in New Baltimore, Greene County, and tells the tale on his blog. The post is well worth a read and it serves as a reminder that even those with many years of experience birding can still be thrown by the unfamiliar.

Corey is a lifelong upstate New Yorker who recently took the plunge and moved to the city. He's only been birding since 2005 but has garnered a respectable life list and broke the magical 300 barrier in New York State in 2007 by birding whenever he wasn't working as a union representative. He lives near Forest Park in Queens with Daisy, their son, Desmond, and their two indoor cats, Hunter and B.B.

  1. FYI The Hawk was re-found this evening. I’ll be looking for it in the AM!

  2. And it is still being seen…anyone driving up from NYC who wants to split gas and tolls just let me know…

  3. A very pretty Hawk! Got lots of photos, I’m sure I’ll have up on my blog this evening!
