[nysbirds-l] Sea-watching from Amagansett this morning
Put in 3+ hours this morning from the beach closest to my house (Atlantic Double Dunes Preserve in Amagansett) between roughly 9am and Noon. Same hunch as others I guess. Highlights: Black-capped Petrel (1) Cory's Shearwater (2) Sooty Shearwater (2) Manx Shearwater (1) Shearwater sp. (12-15) Northern Gannet (1) - but no Brown Booby, even though I was apparently in the right place at the right time, East of Nadir Souirgi's bird - it either slipped past me or pulled further from shore). Parasitic Jaeger (1) Not a bad morning. Others Out East seem to be seeing similar things, I'm sure more will be turned up today ...
