This evening on Rt. 24 in Flanders was a Kettle of 12 TV's overhead. Viewed from my Kayak along the shore near Goose Creek (Reeve's Bay) were dozens of Ruddy Turnstones and Sanderlings.
I also believe there was a Little Blue Heron in the canal behind my house - but I only saw its silhouette as it flew off after being harassed by some crows. The nasal squawk and small size lead me to believe it's a Little Blue and the fact that it appeared very dark which would rule out a Snowy. -- - Luke Ormand, Flanders www.birdsoflongisland.blogspot.com www.wildlongisland.blogspot.com -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
