The storms moving in from the west this morning performed as has come to be expected at this time of year. Many shore birds were put down at our usual spots, affording great looks at some and good numbers of still others. Here is a list of what Arlene Borko and I found this morning. Renee Davis later joined me to help ID some of the farther distant birds at Morningside Park with her higher powered scope.
