Spent the morning at Plum Beach in Brooklyn (FYI the parking lot is still closed post Sandy). Nothing particularly unusual but 2 sparring juvenile Green Herons, an adult andjuvenile Yellow-crowned Night Heron and a very obliging juvenile Seaside Sparrow provided some enjoyable moments. There were not a lot of shorebirds despite the extensive tidal flats but variety was pretty good with 12 species represented. Full eBird checklist with a few juvenile photos embedded here:
