14 common grackles and 4 redwinged blackbirds at yard feeders today near 
Phelps, NY.

Also just now while refilling feeders I heard a cardinal begin to sing!

[nysbirds-l] Little Gull

[Robert A. Proniewych]

Sorry for the late post on this, but the Little Gull was seen yesterday
around 11:30-12:00 at Montauk Point. It was flying over the mass of Scoters
in loose association with a small(6-12) group of Bonaparte's. I viewed it
for a short time, lost it and relocated it in the same general area.
