It was mid-afternoon when I nonchalantly turned the computer on to see what was happening, and from then, to ~ 4 PM when I *safely* arrived at "The Spot" on the Ocean Parkway and saw the "Crazy Crake", the Lord was my co-pilot ! It was a "perfect storm/ not" of a trip, with no traffic holdups, no a

[nysbirds-l] Corn Crake and Black-headed Gull

Well it sure was a good day to be a birder!  Went to photograph the Black-headed Gull at Orchard Beach this early pm and got a 100 or so great shots of it in the lot.  When I got home at about 12:30pm I saw a Corn Crake was spotted on the Island so of course dropped everything and zoomed down t

[nysbirds-l] Corn Crake Photos
