[nysbirds-l] Montauk Area Report
Date: March 23, 2013 A beautiful day to be out with some great spring sightings. The highlight was a Tri-colored Heron at Third House. The scoter numbers at the Point were only about 100, down from 20,000 last year. We only saw Black and Surf with no White-winged scoters. A few Common Eiders were present. Flyovers at Camp Hero were Cooper's Hawk and a few Turkey Vultures. At Montauk Harbor we saw an adult Iceland Gull and some Great Cormorants. We also had an immature Bald Eagle fly overhead.
