A thank-you to those among New York’s many 'first-responders', and a lot of

Caribbean islands so terribly affected by the latest mega-storm, & the
preceding one as well… And, for the many more who are sending what they can

I gambled again on coastal coverage today and it paid off. At RIIS Park, I had
9 ROYAL TERNS loafing on the beach before they were driven away by off leashed

I received some responses regarding how long the beaches would remain
closed. I went back about an hour ago and they're open again. Crews have

I just had a Merlin go after some Blue Jays in a spruce in my back neighbors
yard. It went after them in the tree and then flew straight at me and past my
house heading west. Pretty cool, never seen one that close.
