Tom Dulski and I spent several hours birding the perimeter of the Riis park
golf course. It was loaded with sparrows of all of the expected varieties.
Among them were 2 Vesper Sparrows and 2 Clay-colored Sparrows. Funny but the
fields at Fort Tilden held very few birds compared to the golf course at Riis.
There was also a partially leucistic White-throated Sparrow that had large
patches of white on it. Very cool looking bird.
Also at the archery road at Floyd Bennett was another Vesper Sparrow.
