I birded Jones Beach / Jones Beach West End 9:30AM-12:00PM. Cold biting wind was a bit of a hinderance. The Lapland Longspur, associating rather loosely with Horned Larks on the lawn adjacent to the Coast Guard Station, continues. I checked the shell field adjacent to the Theodore Roosevelt Nature Center which has had longspurs in past years but today it contained only more larks. At Jones Beach field 6, someone was feeding gulls and a first-cycle Kumlien's (Iceland) Gull was amongst those attacted.
