Following up on Ken Feustel's observations barrier beach report: along Dune Road this afternoon I found three Baltimore Orioles and three Brown Thrashers within a few hundred feet of each other, along the Old Ponquogue Bridge boat-launch road. A Common Loon was under the bridge, along side the parking lot, and two Nashville Warblers were just west of the traffic light at the south end of the bridge. At Tiana ocean-side pavilion, I saw a Great-Crested Flycatcher. Indigo Bunting were seen near Neptune's and also on the front lawn of house #81, where they were seen over the weekend. I also noted great numbers of White-throated Sparrows, though not the numbers that Ken reported. There were at least 3 flocks of 10-20 birds in each flock. The only shorebirds I saw were Willets, Killdeer, and Greater Yellow-legs. Eileen Schwinn
