[nysbirds-l] Cory's shearwater; wilson's storm-petrel -- East Hampton
Afternoon fishing trip behind Gardiner's Island provided bluefish, fluke (dinner) and great views of 3 Cory's shearwater and a Wilson's storm-petrel. The shearwater among dozens of common terns feeding on bait that was sporadically being busted up by cocktail blues. I'm sure those birds know what they're doing, but I still have to wonder why more of them aren't missing legs from marauding blues. *Bruce Horwith* *16 Salt Marsh Path* *East Hampton, NY 11937* *(631) 599-0040* -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
