Two banded Royal Terns were perched on the old piers on the south side of Dead Horse Bay/Jamaica Bay this afternoon. Metal bands, too distant to read.
Otherwise, lots of Brants heralding the winter, and Yellow-rumps already enjoying the bay berries. A kestrel. Two species dragonfly, three butterfly species.
