This morning I paddled the length of the Southern Portion of the Carmans River (which is part of my ever growing love affair with all things Carmans River) from Montauk Hwy. to Squassex Creek. Birds were far from plentiful, but I did come across several Forster's near Squassex and saw a Glossy Ibis flying over the river. Great Egrets were plentiful and Osprey were vocal but otherwise a relatively quite morning. Photos can be seen here: http://birdsoflongisland.blogspot.com/2011/07/forsters-tern-on-carmans-river.html
