There is a report of a WHITE PELICAN seen today at Piermont Pier, Rockland County. Maybe the same bird that was seen at Poughkeepsie, Dutchess County, Sunday? If this bird is the same one, maybe it will follow the pattern of previous White Pelicans. Next stop Sandy Hook, New Jersey?

I had been out of town for 10 days and looked forward to getting into my local patch yesterday morning. Last year I found a Kentucky Warbler there mid-June - it hung around for quite a while and, being greedy, I was sort of hoping for another one this year. I had a pleasant walk, but wasn't
