Got a short glimpse of the long-staying (but often difficult to locate) NORTHERN SHRIKE at Floyd Bennett today. It was sitting at the top of one of the taller trees in the middle of the wooded portion of the NW most field.
The shrike has been there for a little over a month now, with the first sighting being John Gluth's on Dec. 4. There were also 5 RED-NECKED GREBES in Jamaica Bay south of the boat launch parking lot.
