Not much at low tide from sunrise to 7am- only a few dozen shorebirds including semi palmated sandpipers and plovers, and 2 spotted sandpipers. Saw 10 Great Egrets and a Great Blue Heron, Green Heron, and a Clapper Rail. Recommend the sandbar as a reliable spot in the early am to find Clapper Rails. High tide will hopefully bring in more shorebirds,
Good luck to everyone looking for rare shorebirds, Rob in Massapequa www.longislandbirding.blogspot.com -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
