Hi, Birding the East Hampton area today we happened upon 8 Ruddy
Turnstones amongst a flock of Sanderling and Dunlin at Accabonac Harbor,
Springs. Hook Pond held few birds due to its being mostly iced over.
Good February Birding, Carl Starace

Big thanks to Ken and Sue Fuestel for relocating the Ross's Goose.
I arrived at Hecksher around 3:30 PM where I ran into Sue Fuestel. She
immediately steered me in the right direction. The Ross's Goose was feeding
with a relatively small herd of Canada Geese north of Field #4 along a roadway

Ross's Goose being seen at HSP now, opposite entrance road to Field 6. Best bet
is to park in S/W corner of Parking Field 1 and walk the paved bike path in a
S/W direction.

I pulled into Timber Point Golf Course at about 9:15 AM. I noticed a goose herd
feeding on the course, just south of the driving range area. This is toward the
west side of the course near the canal. I parked along the canal and began
walking toward an open area where I could get a nice detail

This morning the Ross's Goose reported by Michael was aroost on Merrit's pond.
Also present was a single Greater White-fronted Goose and a single Blue Goose.
The duck community contained one pair each of N. Shoveler and Green Winged
Teal. It seems we may have cracked the code of the Riverhead

dodging bicyclists and joggers who for the most part are very respectful to our
