Hi all, There was a Wilson's snipe at big egg marsh in Queens this morning along with a small number of snow geese and two very nervous sparrows that flew and hid too fast for me to ID. Just 45 mins earlier at Jamaica Bay in the south garden paths I came across an American Woodcock that was trying hard not to be seen by me under the thick bushes. I was hoping for some Pintailed ducks but no luck there. If anyone can suggest a good spot for them I would appreciate it. I also saw a field sparrow foraging at the feeders at the main entrance to Jamaica Bay associating with house finches and 1 yellow-rumped warbler.
