The Point had the usual suspects: thousands of scoter (all 3 species); lots of common eider, and several common and red-throated loon, horned grebe, great cormorant, and 5-6 razorbills. Also, 4 brant, which I don't think I've ever encountered there.
There were no geese present at Deep Hollow, but I did have the unusual sighting for this time of year of 1 killdeer -- any thoughts on whether this is a late straggler or an early arrival? *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/ --
