Hi Everyone, Lots of hawks by Jones Beach- most of the ones I saw were off the Wantagh Pkwy. Most were Red Tailed Hawks- one was feeding on a Canada Goose, a few light morph Rough Legged Hawks- one chased away by Crows, Northern Harriers over the dunes as usual. By the coast guard lot was a large flock of a mix of Horned Larks, Snow Buntings, and about a dozen Lapland Longspurs.
