Nassau County Long Island 3-5pm Spent the afternoon birding Middle Bay from a few different vantage points. Highlights included a single Long Billed Dowitcher mixed in with a flock of around half a dozen SB Dowitchers at the Oceanside Marine Nature Study Area in the last pool on the right before the small foot bridge. A Tricolored Heron was feeding across the bay along the edge of the marsh scoped from the same small bridge.
A Pectoral Sandpiper was also on hand.
