Hi all, A quick note about Randall's Island and sparrows - although a tide chart may be helpful for timing a visit to this site (see Ben's email thread from yesterday), timing a trip there in the early morning (at least this morning) seems a must. There were no people in the vicinity this morning

Hi all, Yesterday, I and Brian Padden got on our bicycles and rode out to Randall's Island. It was a great day for a bike ride, but the main reason was of course to see the Nelson's Sparrows that Alan Drogin found, and reported on Sunday afternoon. It was quite windy and that made the Sparrows
