[nysbirds-l] Pelham Bay Park, Bronx, Orchard Beach and vicinity

After 10 days of birding withdrawal because of the cold, I ventured out to Orchard Beach and vicinity on this balmy day. The parking lot was closed, as NYC Sanitation is sending truckloads of snow into the parking lot. They are building a mountain. Police are tolerating parking in the oval lea

The fields between East Hampton and Bridgehampton (off Montauk Hwy and the back roads parallel to the highway) contained thousands of geese today.
