I echo both Mike Cooper¹s and Bob Lewis¹ suggestions. What about the Marine Park golf course? How about areas around Graves End Bay, such as Dreier-Offerman Park. After one hurricane several Sooty Terns were present near Owl¹s Head Park by the old Brooklyn-Staten Island Ferry terminal. This off course was before the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. Who knows what effect this may have on seabirds since many are loath to fly under bridges. I plan to be out checking the lawns, lakes and reservoir in Central Park (especially if the eye goes over Manhattan) and the Hudson River along Riverside Drive.
