Hello All,
In addition to Cheryl Edgecombe's observation at 12:15 PM, my wife and I
observed the Long-tailed Jaeger from Van Wagners beach at 10:40 AM. We
observed it 4 times over an hour period as it flew back and forth along the
shoreline. We also observed it resting on the water.
At Van Wagners Ponds, we observed Wilson's Warbler, Orange-crowned Warbler,
Magnolia Warbler, Northern Parula, Great Crested Flycatcher & Yellow-bellied
Sapsucker.
