Earlier this morning Peter Paton saw 2 Royal Terns flying west (towards Orient
Pt) past Great Gull Island. He got a photo of one bird.
Also this morning, after the sun up thunderstorms, there was a second year
American Redstart on the island, so there is still some bird movement going on.

On Sunday, I headed out east with the intentions of getting in a shorebird
survey at Cupsogue. Since I got there around high tide, I spent some time
doing a sea-watch which was non productive.
I then birded the Cupsogue flats on a falling tide. The number of birds were
paltry but I managed 12
Hi Shai, David et al.,
Don't forget that the Black-throated Green Warbler is not a species of
purely "northern affinities" or cool temperatures. The Wayne's
Black-throated Green Warbler is still found along the southeastern coast

As of this morning, an Acadian Flycatcher continues at Jamaica Bay Wildlife
Refuge. It was actively calling before taking a bath at Big John's pond this
AM. A word of caution to seekers, please exercise diligence in eliminating the
more usual Willow Flycatcher.
On the East Pond water level
White-faced ibis just picked up with about 40 glossy ibis at south end of
East Pond, Jamaica Bay Wildlife refuge. A female hooded merganser is
present here as well.
