I birded Breezy Point, from mid morning until around 4:30 p.m. this afternoon. Highlights included 5 Cave Swallows - first 3 and then 2 seen within 1/2 hour of each other, all on the Oceanside.
The other notable was the huge flock of Bonaparte Gulls that were in a feeding frenzy near some fishing boats all on the Oceanside. A conservative estimate put the number of Bonaparte Gulls somewhere around 800. Good and responsible birding!
