Dune Road and Shinnecock Inlet continue to produce good birds. Highlights of a mornings birding (mostly from the car due to the wind) includes Black-legged Kittiwake (2) off of the Shinnecock Inlet east jetty, two first winter Iceland Gulls in and around the inlet, the continuing first winter Glaucous Gull in the parking lot, at least one female King Eider in the inlet, and a Red-necked Grebe in the Oakland’s Restaurant boat basin. A Clapper Rail was on the salt marsh east of Dolphin Lane. A few photos are on my flickr site.
