Shorebird diversity is still good at Jamaica Bay, with 17 species seen
on the East Pond this morning. The highlights were a Wilson's
phalarope at the north end south of the cove, and the two continuing
American avocets. Other birds included 1 western sandpiper and 6
stilt sandpipers at the north end, a pectoral sandpiper at the south
end, 3 red knots, a ruddy turnstone, 2 killdeers, and about a dozen
white-rumped sandpipers.
