Beautiful weather on the coast today, and the water was flat calm. Several birders enjoyed the company of four resting Harlequin Ducks, a dozen or so Purple Sandpipers, a close Razorbill, and a Horned Grebe or two at the end of the Jones Beach jetty. Also present were Black Scoters, a drake Common Eider, many Long-tailed Ducks, and both loons. Surf Scoters were seen in the boat basin and the Lark Sparrow continues at the outer turnaround.
