[nysbirds-l] Suffolk Co. Bridled Tern and Shearwater Show

2018-08-03 Thread Sean Sime
An adult Bridled Tern was discovered today on the north east side of Great Gull 
Island. This is the third summer in a row it/one has spent part of the late 
summer here. Unfortunately, the island is a research station and landing is not 
permitted.

Shearwater numbers are down today, but yesterday morning there were hundreds of 
Shearwaters, mostly Cory’s and Great with less than 5 Sooty and 2 Manx. At 
minimum 5 Parasitic Jaegers were working the Tern flocks around the island. 

Good birding,
