Hate driving to Hook Pond? Good news! There are TWO Tundra Swans on Lake Ronkonkoma. Discovered today during the Smithtown CBC by Mike Rath, George R and myself.
Awful picture here: https://flic.kr/p/Ppnzfp The Lake continues to be a slam dunk for Common Merganser. Interesting to see drought like conditions of Long Island judging by the amount of exposed shoreline at Lake Ronkonkoma and how some other explored seeps and ponds were completely dry. -Dave L -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
