This morning I went shorebirding on the East Pond at Jamaica Bay. The highlights were 4 White-rumped sandpipers and 6 Stilt sandpipers which were foraging at the North End. Nothing else of note besides the American Oystercatcher family on the island at the north end of the East Pond. An Osprey was also feeding at the southern end. Both Northern and Lousiana Waterthrushes were around the pond's margins. Vinny Pellegrino www.flickr.com/pellegrinov East Northport, NY "It just doesn't get any better than this" -Jeff Corwin
