Thanks to Dave for posting the information on the White-winged Dove. I have posted a photo on my blog for those of you interested in viewing.
Besides the shorebirds already mentioned by Shai Mitra, today's other highlight was a Yellow-throated Warbler seen in Forest Park Queens with, Rich Kelly, Al Lindberg, Mike Feder, Doug Futuyma and Peter Reisfeld. Good Birding in Queens and Long Island!
