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. James R.
