late this afternoon whilst watching a CORY'S SHEARWATER circling in the middle of the bay, I spotted a BLACK-CAPPED PETREL circling as well. John Shemilt was able to locate the bird from the west side. He was joined by Tom Burke, Gail Benson and Andy Guthrie. Still there a dusk.
Lots of other good stuff to report later. Brown Pelican on Lake Montauk.
