Spring "arrivals" from the East End of Long Island include oystercatchers, tree swallows and osprey -- and the bat which appeared last winter in my yard about this time, tentatively identified as a northern long-eared bat by Kevin Jennings of DEC. (and pretty tune by Jon Dee Graham) *Bruce

Some new arrivals at least for me the past few mornings in a walk up the landfill and out to Teller's Point, included Eastern Phoebe (2), a singing Eastern Towhee (on the wine cellar low road), a seemingly serious uplift too in the numbers of flickers, common grackles, cowbirds and red wing
