[nysbirds-l] Common Nighthawks & Baird's Sandpiper at Heckscher State Park (Suffolk Co.)
We visited HSP this evening in hopes of seeing migrating nighthawks. As we drove the oval we briefly stopped in Field 7, which still has standing water from the latest rainfall. The only shorebird present was a Baird's Sandpiper that was frightened away by someone operating a remote-controlled model car that ran through the puddle where the Baird's was standing! This is the second Baird's that we have seen in a parking lot puddle in the last week - perhaps a previously unidentified habitat sometimes used by this species on migration. Also seen from Field 7 were two Royal Terns flying west along the shore of Great South Bay. We were having no luck with nighthawks until we had almost left the park when six Common Nighthawks were observed heading south high over the roadway. This was close to 8:00PM.

[nysbirds-l] 8/24 Jones Beach Gull-billed & Black Terns...
For those who might be interested, *5* *Gull-billed Terns* (two adults feeding three juveniles) were still present this morning on the sandbar at the West End 2 boat basin near the Coast Guard Station. In addition, *3 possibly 4 Black Terns* were observed feeding in Jones Inlet. One bird not mentioned in Ken Feustel's Jones Beach report yesterday was a *Marbled Godwit* seen by a few of us, on one of the bars north of the Coast Guard Station. I did not see this bird today, but the tide was low during my visit, so it could be anywhere nearby if it did not leave. Also of note from yesterday at the Coast Guard Station were *2 juvenile Semipalmated Sandpipers*, *2 juvenile Least Sandpipers* and *1 juvenile Sanderling*. Be prepared for mosquitoes if visiting either the Coast Guard Station or the swale. Today, the mosquitoes near the swale was so bad a few beachgoers ran for cover abandoning the beach after encountering hordes of mosquitoes. Missing the shorebirds already!
