[nysbirds-l] Oriole in CP

[nysbirds-l] Brooklyn Avocet - NO

Heydi Lopes and I were at Coney Island Creek from approximately 3:30pm to 4:15pm and did NOT locate the avocet. We ran into two Queens birders who had also checked from the Calvert Vaux Park side of the creek and were also unsuccessful. I'm curious if anyone else may have observed the bird

A fairly gusty wind from the NW made for a crisp morning of birding yesterday. Here are some of the highlights: 2 ICELAND GULL - both gulls were seen around the Montauk Harbor/inlet area near Gosman's. One of the gulls was a 3rd winter bird and the other was younger, possibly a 2nd winter.
