There were low numbers of scoters and eiders on the north side but good numbers of Red-throated Loons and Bonaparte’s Gulls. The highlight of the mornings birding at Montauk Pt. was a first winter Little Gull feeding fairly close inshore off the restaurant with Bonaparte’s Gulls. When we birded the south side of the Point we came upon a flock of some seven thousand scoters with some Common Eider mixed in. We did not observe a single Razorbill anywhere. At Fort Pond we came upon our FOS Red-necked Grebe. There was a nice mix of birds at Hither Hills State Park, including five species of raptors. The only birds of note were two Pine Warblers feeding on the lawn in the east picnic area.
