[nysbirds-l] Avocet (YES), Wilson's Phalarope (NO) @ Jamaica Bay Queens County...

Since none of the birders I saw on the pond this morning did a report, I figured I would put out an update. The AMERICAN AVOCET continued this morning on the East Pond at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge, in Queens. However, the WILSON's PHALAROPE was not seen. I and others could have missed it or the
