Cammanns Pond 26 Dec As I was preparing to leave after striking out, Mike Zito pulled into the lot.. We chatted and the BLACK-HEADED GULL flew in. (He posted it). If I hadn't stopped to be sociable, I would have missed it.
Traditionally, the island is a favorite wintering spot for herons. Today there was a GREAT BLUE HERON, a GREAT EGRET, 20 mixed age BLACK-CROWN NIGHT-HERONS and overlooking from the top of the large tree, a very relaxed PEREGRINE FALCON.
