We spent a pleasant morning birding at Cupsogue County Park in Westhampton this morning. Highlights were nine species of shorebirds including Black-bellied Plover (20), Red Knot (2), Ruddy Turnstone (9), Greater Yellowlegs (2), Dunlin (2), Least Sandpiper (10), Short-billed Dowitcher (8), including one hendersoni race, Willet (35), and Am. Oystercatcher (19). Terns variety was poor with Common (300) and Least (6) being the only species observed.
