Wrapping up a January 1st 2016 day of birding, I decided I would leave some
juice in the tank for tomorrow's Southern Nassau CBC and so spent the late
afternoon sifting through the multitude of waterfowl on the East Pond at
Jamaica Bay.
While I could not turn any of the two Scaup species into something rarer, I did
manage to see two drake Eurasian Wigeons. Very likely the continuing
birds--although, (I think) only one was being reported as of late. Lisa
Scheppke, was able to get on one when she joined me later scoping from the
overlook. She also reported a flyby Raven on her way in to the East Pond.
Cheers,
風 Swift as the wind
林 Quiet as the forest
火 Conquer like the fire
山 Steady as the mountain
