Sunday afternoon from ~ noon to ~ 6:15, Tom Moran and I made ~ 12 stops on the
North Fork, traveling as far east as Orient Beach S.Pk., in pursuit of the
"great fish hawk"! Heartened by a number of early reports of Ospreys (one even
from a LIRR commuter on his way to work) we, unfortunately , came up empty re:
Pandion haliaetus. Highlights during this slow birding day were a total of 5
Turkey Vultures (groups of 4 and 1), both near L.I. Sound in the Northville
section of Riverhead, a single, male Wood Duck at the Arshamomaque (Levin)
Preserve in Southold and the great, "late" March weather we experienced in
"early" March!
Cheers,Bob
