Hello All, I walked out to Moriches Inlet early this morning with
Dick Belanger. We took the bay side and saw 2 Harrier, some small flocks of
sitting C. Eider and little else. At the outer jetties we found close to 40
feeding Northern Gannets. On our beach side return we encountered a few BB
We checked three times for the Lark Sparrow found yesterday by Jeanne Skelly
and Gary Chapin at Niagara-Orleans Countyline Road at Yates Center Road,

seed in it. A SAVANNAH SPARROW was seen here three or four times, often on

feeding at the suet yesterday was a Pine Warbler. There were both a male and

outflow at 1:00 pm, today.

GWFG seen on Gerry Pond in Rosylyn, LI from 8:40 am until 9am. It was in
the northernmost pond with hundreds of Canada Geese and not easy to find
until it took to the air. It flew up twice for warm-up rounds at which
time we could hear its distinctive call and get great looks at its
underside
