[nysbirds-l] Northern Gannet-David Weld Sanctuary, Nissequogue - Suffolk
There is a Northern Gannet associating with a mixed flock of gulls off the main bluff at the David Weld Sanctuary about 200 yards off the beach. While this may not be highly unusual I found it personally interesting. I spend quite a bit of time here and this is the first gannet I've noted at this location. On a nice Spring note, there was a patch of Wood Anenome with a single flower in bloom. One of my favorite Spring ephemerals.
