Thanks for this report, Luke. Could you tell me where the nesting boxes are? I don't get out to EPCAL often, but would like to check out the boxes next time I'm there. I usually go in from Route 25 and park at the north end of the western runway - are the boxes near there?

A pair of bluebirds bear the nesting boxes, a couple red-tailed hawks and one kestrel were the only things noteworthy. On the way to the south shore I observed an adult bald eagle near Pleasure Drive and Sunrise Highway flying very high. Dune road was also quiet with no raptors seen. A red-breasted merganser was in a roadside ditch providing unusually close views and large raft of common eider were inside the inlet. - Luke -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm 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://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ -- -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm 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://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
